GMB, a professional services firm focused on the educational market, is thrilled to unveil a groundbreaking acquisition. GMB has officially acquired Up&Up Agency, an uplifting marketing leader specializing in higher education. This acquisition not only represents an exciting new chapter in GMB’s journey but also underscores the firm’s commitment to transforming education services.
Fusing GMB’s robust educational architecture and engineering services with Up&Up’s knowledge in educational marketing, this connection is designed to create tailored approaches that uniquely benefit educational institutions.
Up&Up’s mission is to help leaders of forward-thinking colleges grow enrollment and activate a compelling brand strategy that positions their school to attract and retain more right-fit students. Up&Up, based in Greenville, South Carolina, will continue serving their existing clients across the U.S. while embracing GMB’s people-first philosophy. This philosophy encourages trusting teams that operate with open communication in the pursuit of common goals, aligning with GMB’s structure as a 100% employee-owned company.
GMB and Up&Up share a common dedication to innovation and knowledge sharing, eagerly anticipating the combined impact their skills will have on shaping future learning ecosystems. The newly united team is poised to provide unparalleled support and guidance to educational clients, ensuring a comprehensive approach to their projects.
“By welcoming Up&Up into the GMB brand, we are redefining what a full-service education company can look like,” said David Bolt, President and CEO of GMB. “GMB is building a new kind of firm that more holistically impacts students and supports the success of educational institutions across the country.”
