Centaur Media Plc has agreed a deal to sell MWCR Limited – the operating company of Marketing Week, Festival of Marketing and Creative Review – to Haymarket Media Group.

The cash deal, for an enterprise value of £3.9 million, follows the sale of MiniMBA to Brave Bison in July and The Lawyer, expected to complete early next month, to Legal Benchmarking.

Last month the leadership team at Oystercatchers, a consultancy and strategic intermediary partner for agencies which Centaur acquired in 2016, completed a management buyout.
