Leisure Development Partners (LDP), a leading economics and strategy consultant, is celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2024.
The firm started small with two founding partners, Michael Collins and Yael Coifman, but has since expanded to become a world leader in the attractions, leisure, and entertainment economics industry. 15 years later, LDP now has five skilled and knowledgeable partners and a team of exceptional support staff. It has established itself as a reliable and bankable name in the market.
Staying true to the founding mission
“It’s been a great ride so far and I’m really excited about our future growth,” says Coifman. “Mike and I first met working for ERA and it only seemed logical to team up afterwards. The thinking behind our name was key as we wanted to be true partners with our clients to make their projects a success, not like traditional consultants that step away. This ethos has given us a long line of repeat clients whom we value highly, and has led to the growth of our dynamic team and global presence.”
Collins adds: “I’ve loved serving LDP’s clients over the last 15 years. We’ve had the absolute privilege to work all over the world and on some of the most exciting and heavily invested projects in leisure, entertainment and culture. As a business and as a team, we’ve grown – but we have always stayed true to our mission of delivering the most solid and well-researched, bankable strategic advice.
“As LDP raises a toast to our past, we also look ahead. The world of leisure and entertainment is evolving at a rapid pace and as ever we plan to be leading the way in feasibility, improvement strategy and due diligence in the attractions industry.”
LDP’s advice enables clients to make well-informed decisions, whether starting a new business or trying to maximise their current attractions or destinations.
Attendees at IAAPA Expo Europe 2024, which will take place in Amsterdam from 23 – 27 September, can meet the LDP team at booth #11409.
