Madison to pick majority stake in Sunil Gavaskar's PMG


Media and advertising agency Madison will acquire a majority stake in cricket's "little master" Sunil Gavaskar's sports management company, Professional Management Group (PMG). An announcement to this effect is expected to be made soon.

Sources close to the development said, “Madison will invest in expanding the business, while PMG’s expertise will be used to usher in growth.”

One of the first sports management companies in the country, PMG’s various achievements include the Ceat Cricket Ratings - India’s first cricket awards, The Castrol Indian Cricket Awards and the Signature Club Golf Championship.

The acquisition will mark Madison’s foray into the sports genre which is emerging as a hotspot for most advertising companies. Madison, which was founded by Sam Balsara in 1988, already operates in the advertising, public relations, media verticals, among others.
