Apiary Capital exits ROAR B2B to CloserStill Media
Apiary Capital has sold ROAR B2B to CloserStill Media, an international organiser of business events, exhibitions and conferences.
Roar manages a portfolio of specialist, content-led trade shows and conferences serving highly engaged professional communities across the environmental, healthcare and business technology sectors.
Under Apiary’s ownership, the company made two strategic acquisitions, enabling Roar’s Environmental Services & Solutions Expo to become the UK’s leading environmental event, with a respected international reputation.
Duncan Kirk, CEO of Roar, said: “CloserStill’s decision to acquire the Roar portfolio is not only testament to the quality of the business we have built, but also recognition of the talent, resilience, passion and commitment of our people. We are grateful for Apiary’s support over the past few years, and are excited about the future with CloserStill, which will allow us to scale the business by building on our existing brands and strengthening their global reach."
Dan Adler, Partner at Apiary Capital commented: “We are proud to have supported and been a part of Roar’s journey. The team have built an impressive business with a great culture. We wish the Roar team well and have no doubt they will continue to go from strength to strength.”
