Annapolis, MD (PRWEB) July 17, 2023 -- MRE Partners ("MRE") has completed an investment in Curated Events (“Curated” or the “Company”), the premier event service provider in the Eastern US. Curated’s mission is to inspire, enhance, and elevate the human need to gather and make those notable occasions unforgettable.

"We are excited to be partnering with the Curated team to build the undisputed market leader in premium event services throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast"

Curated has a keen eye for design and aesthetics and is proud to offer the largest and most diverse rental selection in the Southeast. The Company also offers a unique set of planning options that bring additional value to our partnerships with a wide array of clients. Those offerings along with Curated’s depth of stylish and relevant inventory choices enable us to bring a unique turnkey approach to events that is unique to this space. The Company additionally offers large scale, highly innovative, and customized tent structures for luxury events nationwide through its Skyline Tent Company brand.

“We are excited to be partnering with the Curated team to build the undisputed market leader in premium event services throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. Our goal is to provide an unparalleled level of selection and service to our clients” said David Williams, Founder at MRE.

“The Company is at a nice inflection point in its evolution. We like the industry shift towards customized experiences, the market fragmentation, and the opportunity to drive an improved customer experience through continued professionalization and technology” said Jon Schwartz, Director of Private Investments at MRE.

“We are thrilled by this partnership,” said Al Dyess, CEO of Curated. “MRE’s values, expertise, and commitment to growth perfectly align with our mission and goals for the future.”

Moving forward, and in partnership with MRE, Curated is looking to execute an aggressive growth plan via organic initiatives and acquisitions.

MRE partnered with Blue Marlin Partners, Stonehenge Capital, Cohesive Capital, and UMB Financial.

Dubin Clark launched the Curated Events platform in February 2017 and subsequently led the acquisition of eight add-ons to build scale, service offerings, and geographic reach.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
