Ilfeld also owns Watkins Books in London and is editor-in-chief of the Watkins Mind Body Spirit magazine. "Following the acquisition, he plans to form Watkins Media Limited, which will include magazine publishing, his bookshop and mobile app development," the Bookseller wrote.
"My ambition is to grow the Watkins brand into a diverse media company with inspirational books at its core," Ilfeld said. "Nourish's focus on wellbeing through food and drink makes it a natural fit with Watkins, and as a die-hard sci-fi fan, I'm thrilled about purchasing Angry Robot."
