DALLAS — The Point Group, a subsidiary of Point Communications Inc., has acquired Dallas-based Forte Group Inc., a public relations and marketing agency that exclusively serves the senior living industry.
As a result of the acquisition, the company will create a new division of The Point Group named Forte Senior Living Group
“The senior category is a growing area and a prime market opportunity,” says Brenda Hurtado, president and COO of The Point Group. “The addition of Forte expands our senior insights and rounds out our acumen across consumer segments.”
Forte has worked with more than 100 seniors housing communities across the country in all areas of the continuum of care. Beth Wilbins, founder and CEO of Forte Group, will serve as president of Forte Senior Living Group.
