The Farner group, a portfolio company of Waterland Private Equity, partnered with the BlueGlass group to expand its agency alliance “Team Farner”. The Zurich-based BlueGlass group specializes in the fields of digital strategy consulting, search engine optimization, digital campaigns as well as content marketing.

More digital marketing agencies will be brought on board over the coming months under the Farner brand. The growing team of digital experts will provide a digital boost for clients in all the integrated fields of communications – from public affairs, corporate communications and marketing communications to branding and change.

Bär & Karrer has acted as legal advisor to the Farner group in this transaction.
