“As a founder-owned company with employees who were like family, we were looking for a strategic partner which would respect the history and capabilities that made Impact Unlimited a leader in the experiential marketing industry. Silvergrove worked diligently to understand Impact: our markets, structure, operations, clients and, most importantly, our potential. As our exclusive financial advisor, Silvergrove presented several potential acquirers in a competitive process, resulting in a strong strategic match with a private equity backed company which shared the vision that drove the growth of Impact for over 40 years. We highly recommend Silvergrove for their dedication and trustworthiness.”
