ICON boosted by acquisition of SPS Event Tech

ICON is pleased to announce the acquisition of SPS Event Tech Ltd ("SPS"), which further strengthens

and complements its ability to bring brands to life. A world leading provider of branded environments

and live events, ICON is part of CSM and the wider Chime group of companies.

SPS provides considerable capability in delivering branded solutions for retail environments, events and

exhibitions, from creative development and visualization through to 3D construction. Having worked

closely together for several years, the acquisition provides significant opportunities for sales growth and

strengthens ICON’s overall proposition.

"We’re delighted to welcome SPS into the wider ICON business," commented Alastair Bewick, ICON’s

CEO. "We have worked with SPS for several years and their capability in 3D design, production and

delivery enhances ICON’s core offering of bringing brands to life, across all of our markets. Above all,

we share the same ethos in our approach to delivering outstanding branded experiences for our

clients".

Paul Tanswell, Director of SPS Event Tech continues: ‘We’re excited to be joining ICON. The structure

and support they provide will give us a great springboard to grow the business, both nationally and

internationally. We look forward to integrating our technical and visual services into the ICON offering,

enabling the expanded business to support clients with an even wider range of end-to end solutions.’
