CSM Sport and Entertainment has formally been rebranded as Wasserman after the UK agency was acquired last year by the US-based sports marketing and talent representation firm.
The integration of the two companies has been taking place since the acquisition last October and will continue throughout 2024.
The move will see Wasserman launch three new business units – Wasserman Live, Wasserman Rights Sales, and Wasserman Hospitality Sales.
CSM’s Middle East entities will rebrand at a later date.
The deal has increased Wasserman’s international portfolio and “the geographic reach to provide tailored services and an unrivaled network of relationships, skills, and specialisms to leading brands, properties, and talent across 27 countries and 62 cities worldwide.”
The company now has an expanded presence across Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, and North and South America.
