Greenlight has been acquired by Brave Bison Group

August 2021 — The private shareholders of Greenlight Digital Limited and Greenlight Commerce Limited have sold the company to Brave Bison Group Plc.

Greenlight, the digital advertising and technology business, was established by Warren Cowan and Andreas Pouros in 2003. Today, Greenlight works with an array of blue-chip brands and omni-channel retailers on multi-channel digital strategies and innovative new technology solutions, including Dixons Carphone, Muller, GAP and New Balance.

Brave Bison, the AIM-listed global social media and marketing company, entered into a conditional agreement to acquire Greenlight for £6.8 million (US$9.3 million). The expansion is set to more than double Brave Bison’s revenues in the first year.
