King Performance Events (KPE), one of Australia’s most respected Event Management companies, is transitioning its client division to Spark Event Group (Spark).
For almost 20 years KPE has been designing, developing, and delivering great events having raised over $33million for some of Australia’s biggest charities.
“Our purpose has been to create memorable and engaging event experiences for our charity clients and participants. We’ve been proud of all the fundraising dollars generated through these events which has made a genuine difference in people’s lives”, reflects KPE founder and Event Director Ben King.
“But after almost two decades we felt the time was right for Susie and I to reset and try something different away from the hustle and bustle of Events. We are very happy to transition many of our great events and clients across to Geordie and the team at Spark.”
The acquisition of the client side of the KPE business, with its iconic stable of charity events and clients, is the latest step in Spark’s strategy to enhance its event management division.
“Providing our staff with the opportunity to deliver events with real purpose is what Spark is all about. KPE and Spark are deeply aligned with the value of client relationships and quality of event delivery, so the transition of KPE events to our Event Management team is a logical one for all involved,” says Spark CEO Geordie Miles.
Whilst the King family will still retain the Stadium Stomp business, Ben will join Spark on a consultancy basis and will focus on business development and client servicing. Ben and Susie will also now have the time to work on some other special projects.
“Having known and worked with Geordie and his team for several years I know that our existing clients will benefit from Spark’s experienced event management team which is complemented by its workforce division,” Ben says.
