dmg events (Canada) inc. has announced the acquisition of The Pipeline + Energy Expo in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The Pipeline + Energy Expo is Tulsa's premier pipeline and energy event, with over 200 exhibiting companies and 1,500 attendees, says dmg events. The acquisition by dmg events will allow for expansion to the event, providing strategic planning and resources, and production of conference elements and exhibition managements. dmg events continues its focus on expanding into new markets and growth opportunities in niche industry verticals.

The acquisition marks the first foray for the energy division of dmg events to expand in the US market.

"The Pipeline + Energy Expo in Oklahoma is a prime opportunity for the dmg events energy unit to expand its expertise in niche vertical events," said Wes Scott, Executive Vice President, dmg events (Canada) inc. "We are excited that dmg events entrepreneurship and innovative strategies can be injected to continue to grow the event into one of North America's key industry gatherings."

As part of the acquisition, dmg events and The Eagle Gift Foundation, a Tulsa, Oklahoma charity supporting hundreds of local causes have agreed that all proceeds from The Pipeline + Energy Expo's networking events, including the Golf Tournament and Silent Auction Gala, will continue to be honoured. "dmg events believes that each market we touch upon should have a legacy of giving back to the community in any way possible," commented Wes Scott. "The objective will be to grow not only The Pipeline + Energy Expo, but growing the proceeds for The Eagle Gift Foundation is of equal importance."

The next edition of The Pipeline + Energy Expo takes place August 25 - 26, 2015 in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the Cox Business Centre.
