Another slightly oblique fit for our focus, but this will effect purveyors of reasearch and information companies: Market research aggregator MarketResearch.com has acquired MindBranch, its closest rival in the research aggregation space. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
MarketResearch.com is the biggest company in the space, with about $12 million in revenue, and MindBranch was second with about $6.5 million in revenue, according to Outsell estimates.
The deal gives two primary advantages to MarketResearch.com, according to Outselll: It expands its distribution network to include MindBranch’s Asian markets, and it increases MarketResearch.com’s research inventory by 40 percent.
Some more details in the release…
