Detroit Center for TPI

TPI, the outsourcing data and advisory firm acquired by former VNU boss Michael Connors' shell company Information Services Group Inc. (ISG), is to open a new Strategic Client Services Center in the Detroit-metro area in Michigan, USA.

Michelle Volk has been appointed as the Center's Director.

The firm says the Center will drive new revenue streams by providing leveraged financial, analytical and governance services to clients globally. According to Volk, TPI 'found an enthusiastic, highly-educated workforce in the area'. In addition there is a 'critical mass of seasoned TPI advisors' already based in the area.

Scott Gildner, Partner and President, North America, commented: 'Initial demand has exceeded our expectations for the Detroit Strategic Client Services Center, and we plan to double the original planned number of the center's employees by the end of the year.'

ISG, based in Stamford, CT, acquired TPI in November 2007. Web sites are at www.tpi.net and www.informationsg.com .
