Anthesis, a company that guides clients to sustainable performance, completed the acquisition of Given, a professional services firm that focuses exclusively on purpose-led brands. Financial terms were not disclosed. “Given is recognised as one of the pioneers of purpose as a business strategy, helping to unite organisational stakeholders harness greater meaning through mission, and find superior performance as a consequence. With our growth in purpose-led strategy and transformation, backed by our science-based expertise, we can help more clients move purpose from a ‘nice to have’ to an essential creator of business value. Given has demonstrated the power of purpose for many years with some of the world’s biggest brands. We are very excited to bring this experience and expertise into Anthesis and our broader client relationships,” Stuart McLachlan, Anthesis CEO.
