WATG acquires SOSH Architects to form single business entity

SOSH’s office in Atlantic City, New Jersey will begin to operate as the ninth regional office in WATG’s global framework.
Global design firm WATG has announced the acquisition of Atlantic City-based architect firm SOSH in an effort to establish and implement strategies as a single business entity moving forward.
SOSH’s office in Atlantic City, New Jersey will begin to operate as the ninth regional office in WATG’s global framework, following the recent announcement of WATG’s expansion into the Dallas market this fall.
“This integration has been thoughtfully considered and directly supports the strategic growth of both firms,” WATG CEO David Moore said.
“SOSH has been recognized as a leader in gaming industry design, and WATG the leader in hospitality. As we come together, we’re excited by the opportunity to elevate our offering to our clients, helping them to differentiate, grow and succeed.”
WATG and SOSH stated that each shares a commitment to design excellence, combined with a mutual dedication to optimizing operational performance, project delivery and talent development.
The companies will now offer clients and collaborators a “deeper bench” of expertise in these sectors, especially as the industry pivots to prioritize integrated resorts and mixed-use developments.
“Our relationship goes back decades when our firms worked together on multiple projects in the Atlantic City market. We’re proud to come together now and look forward to the opportunity to work as a collaborative, multidisciplinary team, sharing our expertise in the gaming industry and gaining from WATG’s elite and global presence,” SOSH Founding Principal Tom Sykes said.
“The process of integration will now begin and will further strengthen the service that we can offer our clients on both existing and future projects.”
As a combined entity, WATG and SOSH will form a global multidisciplinary design firm with more than 500 professionals practicing across nine locations around the world.
