M&A Activity

EMEA

Independent Talent Group (ITG) acquired a stake in UK sports talent agency Tongue Tied Management (TTM), which represents athletes, coaches, broadcasters, and creators. This follows ITG's growth trajectory after Sienna Private Equity's major stake acquisition in December.

Leadership read: Consolidation shifts the leadership question from growth to integration. For Independent Talent Group in the sector, the demand moves toward transformation and integration leaders who can merge teams, systems and cultures without losing momentum. Across EMEA, watch whether the integration is properly resourced; deals are won or lost the year after they close.
