The Only Agency, the U.S. firm that represents high-profile creatives including Law Roach, has acquired The Blogger Agent, the U.K.-based talent agency specializing in digital creators and influencers across the U.K. and Europe, as it looks to expand its global representation business in the creator space.
Founded in 2015 by Claudia Bish, The Blogger Agent represents talent across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, entertainment and culture with a combined social following of more than 100 million. The agency will continue to operate under its existing name, with its London-based team joining The Only Agency. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“The Blogger Agent har bygget en enestående forretning og en stærk liste af skabere med reel indflydelse og kulturel relevans, særligt inden for mode og skønhed,” sagde Kent Belden, grundlægger og administrerende direktør for The Only Agency, i en erklæring. “Vores talenter skaber de looks og billeder, der former mode og skønhed, og The Blogger Agent’s skabere bringer disse looks til publikum hver dag, hvilket giver os mulighed for at opbygge en virkelig global talentplatform.”
