FIND/SVP Finds New VPs

US business research and analysis firm FIND/SVP has hired two new members for its management team - Rich Forzani, VP of Sales, and Jack Foreman, VP of Product and Channel Development. Both will report to President and COO Marc Litvinoff.

Forzani has more than 20 years' experience, most recently as Senior VP at EURO RSCG. He has also worked for Bearing Point, Cambridge Technology Partners, Gartner and Xerox in a variety of roles. In his new job, he will oversee all of FIND/SVP's sales activities including training of the sales force, prospect targeting and managing client relationships.

Foreman previously worked for Warner Music Group, where he was responsible for developing channel distribution relationships in emerging economies. Prior to this, he worked in various business and product development positions for Gartner, Tech Republic and Jupiter Communications.

In his new role, he is responsible for 'productizing information services' among the company's On-Demand Business Research, Strategic Intelligence, Product Innovation & Development and Market Research business units. He will also explore new partners to distribute the firm's products and services.

Both will work from the company's New York headquarters, and will manage their departments across the company's five offices in New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Boston and Arlington, Virginia.

Litvinoff states: 'Both Rich and Jack bring a wealth of senior executive experience from some of the world's leading research and consulting firms. We made a commitment to further develop our sales efforts and improve our cross-selling initiatives in 2005. These hires are the first steps in our accomplishing this goal.'
