LEADING TRAVEL MARKETING FIRMS TO MERGE IN MAJOR DEAL
Kansas City, MO - December 9, 2011
In a move that will form the largest and most integrated travel marketing firm in the world, MMG Worldwide and Ypartnership announced today that the companies are merging in a transaction that will form a new company called MMGY Global.
"We are taking the unrivaled research and strategic planning components of Ypartnership and putting them together with MMG's integrated and technically-driven channel marketing resources to form the preeminent travel and entertainment marketing company," said Clayton Reid, the combined entity's new President and CEO.
The companies, who together represent over 200 of the most recognized travel and hospitality brands from around the world, will immediately merge operations and maintain offices in Denver, Kansas City, New York and Orlando as well as maintain affiliate partners in over 10 international countries including Canada, the UK and Thailand.
"We have been respectful rivals for many years, but as we looked at each other's organizations, we quickly realized how much potential there was in combining the remarkable talents and resources of both companies," said Peter Yesawich, the new company's Vice Chairman.
MMGY's Chairman, Don Montague, started MMG Worldwide in 1981 and has long been interested in adding a world-class research, branding and strategic planning arm. "We see Ypartnership as not only the category leader in these strategic areas, but an agency with incredibly talented people and a phenomenal track-record," said Montague.
MMGY Global will have over 200 employees and will bring together a collection of integrated marketing resources in research, strategy & analytics, brand development, advertising & digital marketing, CRM, web & mobile development, social marketing and public relations. "We will now be able to execute strategies and tactics across all marketing disciplines within one integrated company, and until today, that kind of unified deployment was not available to travel industry marketers," added Reid. "It's certainly exciting for all of us to see this coming together."

“Once in a lifetime trip”
As you all might know by now, FGASA (Field Guides Association of Southern Africa) have changed their required number of days allocated to a level one qualification to 60 days from next year. The EcoTraining 28 day FGASA qualification will be your last chance to do a 28 day course with the FGASA exam. We decided to make this a “once in a lifetime” opportunity.
Participants will be trained in 3 different reserves as part of the 28 day program; the training will include reserves in South Africa and Mashatu Game reserve in Botswana. The staring date for this specialist 28 day FGASA course is November the 25th 2011. (Remember you don’t have to do this as a career, you can also do it as part of the adventure of a lifetime)
We started in 1993 with a mission to raise the standard of guiding in Africa.
EcoTraining is the oldest field guide training company in Africa. We were one of the first companies to conduct formal training programmes for
nature guides. We are known in the industry as the pioneers and leaders in
field guide and nature training.
For more than a decade, we have been sending people of all ages into the African wilderness to learn about the environment in exciting, in-depth and sensitive ways and to find out what it really takes to become a game ranger or a field guide
Don’t miss the last opportunity to get both your EcoTraining as well as your FGASA qualification while exploring reserves in South Africa and Botswana. For more information contact enquiries@ecotraining.co.za or phone +27 (0) 13 752 5248. Space is limited on this course, visit www.ecotraining.co.za for more information on the 28 day course.
