FC Business: Skyview Innovations Acquires Hovercraft

Skyview Innovations has announced the acquisition of Hovercraft, marking an important next step towards creating a new global network of creative and innovation-led companies.

This transaction is complimented by Skyview’s recent acquisition of UK-based agency OMM, forming an industry-leading global network in experiential, spatial computing and emergent technologies.

Bringing these companies together in a unified network exemplifies Skyview’s commitment to driving innovation and enhancing user experiences across various platforms in both physical and virtual environments. Hovercraft will lead the charge in scaling a North American presence, focusing on creative-led immersive experiences for retail, events, stadiums, and campaigns.

 Notably, Hovercraft has a fifteen-year track record of delivering best-in-class, award winning work for brands such as Nike, Coinbase, H&M, Jordan and other globally recognized market leaders.

“We have built our business on demystifying complex productions across multiple specialized work streams while emphasizing quality and craft,” said Co-Managing Director, Matt FaJohn. “With Skyview’s support, we will bring these proven systems to new and existing partners – at scale.”

“Our team is super excited, and our clients will certainly feel the positive effects of the combined world-class talent touching their projects,” added Zack Teachout. ​ 

“The experience and support Skyview brings to the table is amazing for Hovercraft, it immediately super-charges our next phase of growth and business maturity through a shared vision.

“We fully embrace the SVI vision; there’s an incredible value add for everyone, which is what it’s all about.

“Speaking to the network, we’re thrilled to step into this strategic partnership with OMM, with whom we already have several shared capabilities and client ecosystems. The early integration has been very organic – we speak the same language and share the same goals, which makes it so easy to step into the new relationship.”

 Jeff Kaplan, CEO of Skyview Innovations, said: “This strategic acquisition positions Skyview Innovations at the forefront of the spatial computing and immersive technology sector, further solidifying its role as a global industry leader.”
