StrategyEye, the innovative next generation business intelligence platform, has signed a partnership to provide content to BNET Industries, a new business media site and part of the CNET Networks company.
The deal is a significant boost for London-based StrategyEye, which provides highly filtered information, analysis and collaboration tools to senior executives in complex industries such as digital media and clean technologies.
BNET Industries is a major strategic initiative for CNET (Nasdaq: CNET). It combines original reporting with information on the business fundamentals of more than 9,000 public companies covering 11 industries. It gives business managers a single destination to research activity.
The BNET integration is the first global content licensing deal for StrategyEye. The company is providing its feeds alongside a small number of established global providers such as Reuters.
StrategyEye is now able to leverage its meta-data and categorisation approach in such a way as to allow it to integrate granular xml feeds on individual companies and categories (social networks for example) into major portals and corporate intranets.
“The BNET goal to help executives monitor their ecosystem more effectively fits very closely with our core approach to adding contextual, meta-data driven intelligence to any corporate activity,” commented Nick Gregg, CEO of StrategyEye.
“Our value-chain mapping coupled with the accuracy of our article indexing will allow BNET users to rapidly understand the context of any event and to easily assess its strategic impact on other related companies or categories.”
The deal was welcomed by Greg Mason, senior vice president of CNET Networks business and technology properties. “Many of the issues that managers face are universal in nature – they apply in all industries, professions, and countries.
“StrategyEye’s contextual content in complex or rapidly-changing industries, such as Digital Media, enables our global audiences to identify and interpret trends quickly – helping them make faster, more informed business decisions and to spot potential emerging opportunities or competitive risks.”
