TORONTO, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Beringer Capital, a private equity firm specializing in the media, marketing, information and technology sectors is excited to announce that its portfolio company, Inman Group, has completed the acquisition of Blueprint from Connectiv Holdings.
Blueprint hosts a premier 3-day annual conference that brings together a loyal, 2,500+ community of industry innovators and leaders across the entire built world ecosystem to connect and shape the future of real estate.

Partnering with key leaders behind the conference – including Martin Kelly, David Hirschman, Vik Venkatraman, and Jeffrey Jones – Inman is excited to elevate Blueprint to new heights.
Jay Weintraub, CEO and founder of Connectiv Holdings, shared, "In our 15+ years of launching and transitioning events, we've collaborated with many companies, but I've never been as excited about the potential as I am with Blueprint and Inman. Together, we're poised to take Blueprint to the next level and drive even more innovation across the industry."
Emily Paquette, CEO of Inman, explains, "Our goal with this acquisition is to continue Inman's path to become the media company for the entire ecosystem of the real estate industry. Jay and his team have built a very special event and community, designed very thoughtfully. Working alongside them we will seek to help unlock more innovation and advancement for the entire built world."
Lu Cacioppo, Managing Partner of Beringer Capital, shared, "Inman has been a trailblazer from day one, uniting top industry minds and disruptors to push real estate innovation and growth.
