Jamieson is pleased to announce that it has advised the management team of Nineteen Group on the acquisition by the Growth Partnership Fund, a continuation fund raised by Phoenix Equity Fund, co-led by Kline Hill Partners and Ares Management.
Nineteen organizes large-scale trade events in markets including cyber security, retail technology, manufacturing and engineering. The group also publishes magazines and hosts awards, summits and round tables. Some of its shows include the Commercial Vehicle Show, International Security Expo, and the Build Expos held in Chicago, London, Melbourne, New York, and Sydney. Its New York edition is expected to have over 40,000+ attendees in 2025.
Peter Jones, CEO of Nineteen Group, commented:
“We couldn’t rate Jamieson more highly. It was our first rodeo, round I to round II, with added complexity being a continuation fund. Jamieson proved not only essential in guiding Nineteen, but also being a comforting go-to, especially when navigating the more sensitive areas of negotiation with investors. We are super-pleased with the outcome, and will definitely be back for round II to III”
Tom Burton, Billy Henson and Alison Dunning advised the management team on their re-investment in the new structure and the terms of the new management equity arrangements.
