With executives, business managers, venture capitalists and investors relying on commercial market research to guide investment decisions, assessing and tracking the quality of that research becomes paramount. Business plans based on faulty research can destroy a company. This problem is finally being addressed by Westwind Research through publications already released and those slated to be issued in the upcoming year.

When the Internet bubble burst, it became apparent that a great number of research firms had really been hyping unrealistic predictions of growth in the Technology market, says John M. Broemmelsiek, a Senior Analyst with Westwind Research. Now that investors and venture capitalists are starting to put their toes back into the water, it is vitally important that we hold these firms accountable for the predictions they make.

Broemmelsiek continued, The release of The Market Research Index -- Technology EditionTM" will track these predictions and flag conflicting or potentially unreliable estimates. Industry estimates and predictions are entered into a database that is released every month to subscribers. We also present concise summaries of recent market research so that busy executives dont waste time mulling through press releases or other documents. For anyone who has a financial stake in the technology market, this publication is a must have. And at a ridiculously low price of $185 for a one year subscription, there is absolutely no reason not to start receiving this unique and powerful business tool."
