BoardEx breaks the barriers

BoardEx recently passed two major milestones in building its core database of the world’s business leaders. The people count smashed the quarter of a million barrier and the organizations involved is now over half a million. Using its proprietary software, BoardEx can identify over 30 million connections between its data subjects – and that’s just at first degree level.

“Our investment in our analyst team is really paying off,” says Dominick Sutton, the company’s managing director of content. “We are now adding several thousand new profiles every week and our universe is expanding rapidly.”

BoardEx is unique in using analysts to gather and quality assure its people profiles and in concentrating totally on board members and senior executive management. The company claims this is the basis of its success. “Our clients want to see connections to the most senior people,” adds Sutton. “BoardEx is the only service to offer that. We are unique – and uniquely valuable – to many of the world’s leading organizations.”
