BTS specialises in the food and beverage services, and furniture, manufacturing and franchising sectors, its brands including Fispal, ABF and ForMobile.
The senior management team of BTS and the founders of Serigrafia will both join Informa.
The acquisitions strengthen Informa’s global exhibition operations, with Serigrafia in particular enhancing its position in the print sector alongside IPEX – one of the world’s largest print related exhibitions.
Informa chief executive Peter Rigby said: "These acquisitions are consistent with two of our strategic goals; growing our trade show business and expanding our presence in emerging markets.
"BTS is an exceptionally well-managed trade show organiser with an enviable reputation in one of the world’s most dynamic and fast growing regions. Serigrafia provides the perfect platform on which to expand our print portfolio in the emerging markets," he added.
