Wildstone Capital has announced that Antin Infrastructure Partners has acquired a majority stake in its business from DigitalBridge.
Damian Cox, CEO and Founder of Wildstone told us “Europe represents a huge untapped opportunity and expansion to these territories is a natural extension of our business model, which is to acquire, upgrade and scale. The future of outdoor media infrastructure is digital, and we are, by far, the best positioned to capture a substantial piece of the global market share. Antin recognises the significant growth potential and together we are well placed to accelerate expansion.”
We are told that the partnership with Antin will enable Wildstone to replicate its business in the UK across new European markets.
Stéphane Ifker, Senior Partner at Antin said “With the UK market expected to achieve 70% digitalisation within 10 years, we are excited to support Wildstone in scaling up UK operations and replicating its success across key European markets. Outdoor media infrastructure is a trusted broadcast medium with a national reach, which makes it essential for the advertising value chain and public stakeholders”.
Wildstone has an impressive portfolio of over 3,000 outdoor advertising assets across the UK, Ireland and The Netherlands including super-premium digital billboards located along major roads and motorways.
