Star Sanctum will provide a select number of paying attendees with a chance to do all the usual fan convention stuff, such as attend seminars, get autographs and photos of the stars of recent action hero movies.
Challenger has provided a £100,000 loan agreement to Star Sanctum to support the launch of its first convention in London.
“Star Sanctum has identified a very unique and growing business opportunity; these events are incredibly popular and lucrative in North America, where there is a track record of success dating back to 1970,” said Mark Gustafson, the chief executive officer of Challenger.
