M&A Update l The Art of Luxury

Congratulations AKG

Congratulations to Aaron Kirman in Beverly Hills and the entire AKG team to have found an amazing exclusive brand with Christie’s to create AKG l Christie’s International Real Estate. 

I have known, and enjoyed collaborating with, Aaron Kirman since 2016 through the Pacific Union International acquisition of John Aaroe Group. It has been our honor at McLaughlin Ventures’ to provide the strategic advice to Aaron and the AKG leadership team throughout the process of launching this new brokerage firm. The combination of AKG with Christie’s sets the new standard for The Art of Luxury, also part of the new AKG brand identity.

McLaughlin Ventures also engaged the WAV Group to provide strategic technology and back-office advice, and through a WAV Group relationship, together we engaged 1DS Collective to orchestrate the AKG brand strategy, brand management, and brand launch planning. 

AKG l Christie’s International Real Estate sets the new standard for The Art of Luxury. The full press release is here.

This is Where We Are Now.
