New York, NY (PRWEB) May 11, 2009 -- Brigantine Advisors, an integrated research team with its first focus on the technology vertical, announced today that Colin Gillis has joined the firm's equity research team as Managing Director of Internet & Transaction Research, growing its New York office located at 780 3rd Avenue.

"As one of the fastest growing new boutiques with offices in New York, Boston and San Francisco we are excited to welcome Colin Gillis to Brigantine," states Director of Research Louis Miscioscia. "Colin's deep public and private company knowledge, industry contacts, and years of experience working in the space are a direct fit for the senior analyst role at Brigantine."

"With the equity markets up over 35% since the lows reached on March 6th, investors who did not deploy cash quickly enough are going to seek every edge to capture performance. I look forward to providing clear written analysis, industry specific mid-quarter conference calls, proprietary survey work and relevant management meetings to Brigantine clients" said Gillis.
