Portal Firm Digs Deep for Profound
Research report site MarketResearch.com has acquired the Profound® service from Thomson Business Intelligence, for an undisclosed sum. The buy brings additional content and sales presence in Europe and North America.
Unlike its new owner, Profound provides a closed-platform research service. It offers advanced, proprietary searching tools including a comprehensive taxonomy of companies and industries. MarketResearch.com indexes over 130,000 research reports from more than 560 firms, and already owns subsidiaries MindBranch.com, Packaged Facts, Kalorama Information and SBI.
'Bringing Profound into the MarketResearch.com family will allow the combined services to realize their full potential as the world's largest provider of syndicated market research' according to Chairman and CEO Rob Granader.
Thomson Business Intelligence is a unit of Thomson Corp, online at www.thomsonbusinessintelligence.com . The buyer is online at www.MarketResearch.com .
