Running Imp Successfully Acquires Events FR

Running Imp is proud to announce that it has successfully acquired Events FR after running as a competitor for the last 16 years.

History

Neil Landry, the owner of Events FR, started his journey in the industry working for our Chairman, Chris Illsley BEM, in 1991 - three years after Running Imp was founded by Chris.

Fifteen years later, Neil moved on to create FrontRunner in 2006, now known as Events FR.

From humble beginnings in 1988, there have been plenty of chapters for Running Imp. Now, After just one short year of taking the lead, Josh is paving the way for Running Imp's next chapter to reach new levels.

Retirement and Acquisition

After sixteen years of success, Neil and his Wife, Amanda Landry, decided it was time to retire from the Events industry, an opportunity that Running Imp's CEO Josh Illsley saw as a way to help build upon an already successful year at Running Imp. Subsequently, Running Imp and Events FR entered discussions to absorb Events FR into Running Imp, bringing with it a new chapter of growth and prosperity.

We are delighted to announce the acquisition was a success. We will work closely with Neil and Amanda over the next year to ensure a seamless transition and provide exceptional service to existing customers.
