The library is rich in sources of information and data on markets (industry sectors, market shares, products, demographic groups and lifestyles etc.). This information comes in the form of published market reports from well-known providers such as Euromonitor, Reuters, Datamonitor, Forrester, Gartner Research and Economist Intelligence Unit, as well as thousands of trade magazines and feeds of raw statistical data awaiting your own analysis.

Alternatively, go to Library > E-Resources > By subject for databases containing market and industry data and reports. |
