Catalyst Teambuillding went into voluntary liquidation in April, owing creditors more than £200,000.

Five of Catalyst's staff were made redundant including managing director John Bird, with Charlotte Cornwallis staying on as head of sales, and Fiona Craven as head of events.

Cornwallis and Craven have now moved into Bluehat’s offices in London Bridge.

"Working alongside Bluehat’s events team means that together we can deliver even stronger solutions for clients who take teambuilding events seriously," said Catalyst head of events Fiona Craven.

"We share the philosophy of learning through experience and both teams have developed some very successful and unique products," she added.

The partnership will also provide Bluehat with an opportunity to grow its client list internationally, as Catalyst Global has offices in Europe, the USA, Asia, Australasia, Africa and the Middle East.
