Dow Jones Partners With Curation Corporation to Deliver “Disruption” Monitoring
October 17 2017 - 12:21PM
Dow Jones has announced a new partnership with Curation
Corporation, a risk monitoring and content specialist, offering
curated news briefings that provide customers with timely insights
on peripheral risks, emerging disruptive trends and new business
opportunities.
“Peripheral risks are typically found outside the parameters of
traditional risk monitoring, but may have a dramatic and
substantial effect on a business if unrecognized,” said Chris
Lloyd, Head of Dow Jones’ Professional Information Business.
Powered by Dow Jones’ Factiva database, which includes nearly
33,000 premium sources, each briefing will feature relevant
insights that highlight disruptive trends facing a customer’s
business or industry.
Content from Factiva will be algorithmically filtered, read,
summarised and then ranked by a dedicated team of specialist
curators on a daily basis. Curators will work with industry experts
to provide further insight and recommendations on subjects of
importance to customers.
Features of this joint product offering include:
- Dow Jones Curated Insight Briefings -- a selection of 18
topic-based news briefings, based on the best content available in
Factiva’s premium news archive. Topics include Robots and Drones;
Sharing & On Demand Economies; Disruption in Property; Internet
of Things; and Disruptive Trends in China, with new topics to be
added over time
- Dow Jones Disruption Insight Radar -- curated weekly alerts on
the world’s most important stories and why they are likely to
impact your business
- Access to the world’s best collection of licensed content via
Factiva
The partnership combines Dow Jones content with Curation
Corporation’s expertise in news curation, enabling customers to
process complex subject matters faster and more easily.
“Unlocking information to help power businesses is at the heart
of Dow Jones’ mission,” said William Lewis, CEO of Dow Jones. “Our
partnership with Curation Corporation will enable customers to go
beyond the news to identify emerging competitors, industry trends
and potential opportunities that may be entirely overlooked. With
Curation Corporation, we are bringing industry insight, best in
class technology and specialist monitoring together under one
roof.”
“We are incredibly excited to be working with Dow Jones on this
transformational venture. In an age where information is
overwhelming, smarter monitoring solutions are needed to help
business leaders save time, highlight opportunities and mitigate
substantial risks. In partnership with Dow Jones, we believe we can
establish one of the world’s best informed intelligence
communities,” said Nick Finegold, CEO of Curation Corporation.
