Good morning and welcome to the Business Breakfast live blog for Tuesday, August 21. I’m Coreena Ford and I’m running the blog today. The business team’s live blog brings you all the breaking news from across the North East, the UK and beyond – basically anything and everything from the world of business. This morning’s blog starts with a key acquisition that reunites two firms that went their separate ways seven years ago. Newton Aycliffe company Tekmar has announced it has snapped up Darlington business Subsea Innovation in a £4m deal, just over two months after it floated on the AIM. And we have news from Persimmon and Game, a large chunk of which is owned by Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley. I’ll also include some reminders of stories you may have missed.
