MCI boosts Scandinavian events offering with acquisition

08/12/2011

MCI has acquired Stockholm-based communication and event agency, Imagine.

Imagine will become part of MCI Scandinavia, adding expertise in meetings and events, including strategic meeting communication.

Polo Looser, area vice president, said Imagine had built up expertises organising corporate and government events since being founded in 1999.

He added: “Strengthening our meetings and events offering to complement our already strong congress management and destination management teams allows us to create an integrated company and take a major step in reinforcing MCI’s position as a top player in the meetings and events market in Scandinavia.”

Oscar Gillström, currently CEO of Imagine, will join MCI as director of meetings and events at MCI Scandinavia, whilst Marcus Östlundh will continue to head up the corporate division and DMC services.
