Stanhope PLC

LDP’s depth of knowledge regarding the UK arena market and event facilities worldwide was critical to our project moving forward. As an expert witness, Yael was extremely prepared and did an exceptional job of defending our interests several times over a period of 10 years. She (and LDP) also showed tremendous flexibility in trying to find a viable solution to please all parties.

LDP has performed the feasibility study of Nature Wonder World (Limburg, Netherlands) with great care and professionalism. Since LDP has knowledge of and experience with theme parks all over the world, the research results are very reliable. LDP is a very enthusiastic and flexible party to work with.

Simon Opie, CEO, Hastings Pier Charity

Hastings Pier

LDP provided feasibility, industry benchmarking, market testing and business planning advice that proved critical in securing funding to renovate and reopen Hastings Pier, an important heritage asset. We value their industry knowledge and experience together with a flexible approach that is very receptive to client input. But most importantly we value their independence, which meant that they did not simply tell us what we wanted to hear – and that delivers the kind of credible advice that is truly worth having.

B. B., Head of Strategy and Planning

Solidere

LDP helped us to properly understand and evaluate a line of business we knew nothing about. The whole project was rationalised as we considered it through LDP’s lens which balanced the creative development process that was running in parallel. Beyond scope however, its LDP’s engagement approach that stood out more than anything. Michael and Yael worked closely with us as one team and extended support from every angle despite the changing and challenging circumstances at times. If you are considering investing in an entertainment project, this is a team with deep expertise, no nonsense approach, and wide industry network that will be leveraged to help you succeed.

Andreas Andersen, President CEO, Liseberg Group

Liseberg

I think all of us in the amusement park and leisure industry rely on gut instinct when making decisions about future developments, strategies or investments, but sometimes you need facts and figures that take you beyond that instinct. LDP‘s expertise in regard to Liseberg has been excellent; we have simply made better decisions through our collaboration with them.’
