Two Circles – The Only Company Named in The Sunday Times 100 Four Years in a Row

Posted on June 30, 2025 By Two Circles

Two Circles, the sports and entertainment business, has been recognised in The Sunday Times 100 list of the UK’s fastest-growing private companies for an unprecedented fourth year in a row – the only company to be named in the prestigious list four years running.  

The Sunday Times 100 celebrates the UK’s top entrepreneurial companies, spotlighting those driving innovation, creating jobs and delivering sustained growth. This continued recognition follows another landmark year for Two Circles, underpinned by the strategic support of private equity partners Charterhouse Capital Partners and Otro Capital. 

Over the past 12 months, Two Circles has scaled its global capabilities significantly, acquiring both KORE and Spring Media. The company now operates from 14 offices worldwide, helping brands and rights holders grow their audiences and revenues. 

Gareth Balch, Co-Founder and CEO of Two Circles. “It is a great honour to be named once again in this prestigious list. It is an acknowledgment of the outstanding work we have been doing for our clients but more significantly is a reflection of the dynamic growth of the sports marketing sector. The business world is now realising that sport is a massive business sector globally.  Driven by digital innovations,  all aspects of sport – from media rights and sponsorship to merchandise, talent management, attendances, hospitality and the booming growth of women’s sport – are experiencing staggering year-on-year growth. As sport continues to evolve, there is an unparalleled opportunity to play a more meaningful role in this transformation” 

 To acknowledge the listing, some of the Two Circles team were invited to 10 Downing Street on Thursday by the UK’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves, joining around ten other high-growth businesses helping to power the UK economy. 

Tim Thomas, Chief Financial Officer, said “It was a real privilege to be invited to Downing Street and meet other companies who are scaling rapidly and making a real impact on the UK economy. We’re proud of the role we play in helping grow the global sports and entertainment industry”
