Cheshire based B2B business marketing agency The Scott Partnership has acquired life science PR agency Kapler Communications.

The acquisition sees Kapler move into the holding company of The Scott Partnership to operate as a wholly owned stand-alone business. The company hopes this helps in building international centres of excellence for B2B communications, delivered globally to life sciences and healthcare, chemicals and environmental clients.

CEO Kath Darlington explains, “Kapler is a strong established business with a solid record of customer delivery in the life sciences and analytical field. The two founders, Trish Appleton and Richard Kent, will remain in the business and bring the significant skills of their science-led team into The Scott Partnership.”
