FTI Consulting Advises Providence Equity Partners and Searchlight Capital Partners on Sale of Hyve Group
London, 15 June, 2026 — FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) provided financial vendor due diligence services to Providence Equity Partners L.L.C. (“Providence”) and Searchlight Capital Partners (“Searchlight”) on the sale of Hyve Group (“Hyve”) to Hellman & Friedman (“H&F”).
This engagement marks the continuation of a long-standing relationship, having first supported Providence and Searchlight on their acquisition of Hyve in 2023, and subsequently advising Hyve on various bolt-on acquisitions in 2024 and 2025.
Hyve is a global next-generation B2B events business, with a portfolio of renowned brands including HLTH, Shoptalk, Bett, POSSIBLE, Manifest and ASU+GSV Summit. In the three-year partnership with Providence and Searchlight, Hyve has delivered three consecutive years of double-digit organic revenue growth, expanding EBITDA beyond $100 million.
H&F’s investment reflects Hyve’s continued growth potential. The acquisition is expected to complete by the end of the calendar year.
The FTI Consulting team advising on the transaction was led by Senior Managing Directors Rustom Kharegat and Aseem Adya and included Andre Kong, Will Davies, Tom Murray and Artemis Georgiou.
