Nineteen Group has begun the new year with a string of high-profile U.S. acquisitions, Reliabilityweb, The Lead, and SubSummit, which will strengthen its international portfolio of category-leading platforms and communities.
Reliabilityweb is a highly respected global community dedicated to reliability engineering, maintenance excellence, and asset management. The acquisition marks a key milestone in Nineteen Group’s expansion in the United States and reinforces its growing footprint across the manufacturing sector.
The Lead is a fast-growing portfolio of executive-level brand and retail leadership events and forums focused on the strategies, technology and operating models shaping modern consumer business. By joining with Nineteen Group, The Lead will be able to scale its core events and expand into new markets.
SubSummit is the leading conference dedicated to technology-enabled subscription commerce within retail and consumer markets. The acquisition will enable Nineteen Group to support SubSummit as it pursues plans to scale its key offerings, including operator-led programming, practical insights, and peer-driven exchange.
As a culture-first company, these acquisitions are a testament to Nineteen Group’s powerful ability to connect with founder entrepreneurs.
Each of these businesses will continue to be led by its existing management teams and will remain as independent brands inside the Nineteen Group portfolio. Nineteen Group will nurture each business through investment, international reach and event expertise, laying the groundwork for new engagement opportunities across the globe.
Peter Jones, Group CEO of Nineteen Group, commented:
“These are not regular acquisitions. By partnering with unique organisations such as Reliabilityweb, The Lead, and SubSummit, we are honouring one of our key commitments: to support founder-led events with strong leadership and real community impact. These partnerships will inject fuel into Nineteen Group’s tank, driving us forward as we grow our momentum in the U.S. market.”
