Talking of music industry conventions, the company that owns Music Week, CMPi, has just acquired conference company Ithaca Holdings, who in turn own ever growing UK music business convention London Calling. According to Music Week, CMPi CEO Gary Hughes said of their acquisition: "This is a great acquisition for us as it gives us six excellent events which, using our considerable expertise and great people, we can build into even stronger brands. Some of these events are in markets where we already have a presence, for example London Calling and Internet World, while others give an entry point into new and adjacent markets".
