Novintel Establishes an Office in New York

Novintel, an international pioneer in customized Market Intelligence services and solutions, continues its North American expansion by establishing an office in New York City.

Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) April 26, 2007 -- Novintel, an international pioneer in customized Market Intelligence services and solutions, continues its North American expansion by establishing an office in New York City.

Home to the headquarters of many global corporations, the New York metropolitan area represents one of the largest markets worldwide for customized Market Intelligence services. By establishing an office in New York, Novintel becomes closer with its existing and prospective U.S.-based customers.

"Investing in the U.S. presence is a significant strategic step for Novintel after successfully building our North American client base from Toronto", says Novintel Inc.'s President Jouko Virtanen. "New York is truly a global business information hub and many of our North American as well as European clients have a strong presence on the East Coast which further justifies the choice of location at this point in our history."

Novintel has established a significant number of long-term customer relationships in North America around its Intelligence DeskTM service concept. The Intelligence Desk™ combines an optimized information source portfolio, a customized web interface and professional analyst resources to monitor the external operating environment of an organization.

Novintel has also built a strong installed base, in the U.S. and internationally, for its leading edge Market Intelligence software product, Intelligence PlazaTM. Customers include global corporations such as Ciba Specialty Chemicals, DHL, GE Healthcare, Henkel, and KONE.

The Novintel office in New York will also serve as the U.S. East Coast point of contact to the Global Intelligence Alliance (www.globalintelligence.com), a global network of professional business research and Market Intelligence companies.

Novintel will present its solutions and selected customer case studies during the 2007 Society of Competitive Intelligence Professionals International Annual Conference in New York City (April 30 - May 3) at the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel.
