Trend forecaster WGSN acquires Stylesight

 

WGSN has announced the completion of the acquisition of Stylesight, a US-based content and technology solution for creative professionals, and the merging of their respective operations in the Americas and abroad. The terms of the deal were not announced. The merger includes the creation of a new US-based trend and information hub in New York, made up of trend creatives, researchers and technologists from both companies.  It will enhance the ability of each to deliver the innovation and inspiration that they are known for in their individual markets to their respective customer bases. The news follows a September acquisition of Mindset Communicaco e Marketing Ltda, a Sao Paulo, Brazil-based marketing agency; and asset purchase from Mudpie in July, which also offers fashion trend forecasting services specialising in children’s apparel.
