GlobalData Plc is a data analytics and consulting company, headquartered in London, England. It is listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Background

The company was founded as a London-based provider of online marketing, business information, research and marketing services named TheMutual.net in 1999,[3] and was listed on the Alternative Investment Market in 2000.[4] It changed its name to TMN Group in December 2006.[5]

In December 2007, it acquired Internet Business Group in a £9.8m deal.[6] Four months later, in March 2008, TMN rejected a £40m cash and shares offer from Tangent Communications, another marketing services group. Then in May 2008, two TMN directors, CEO Mark Smith and CFO Craig Dixon, put together a £52.8m management buy-out offer for the business, backed by August Equity.[7] Following the Tangent offer, withdrawn in April 2008, founder and former Datamonitor CEO, Mike Danson had built a 27% shareholding in TMN.[7]

In 2009, TMN was acquired via a reverse takeover by Progressive Digital Media Ltd,[8] and changed its name to Progressive Digital Media Group.[5] Progressive Digital Media had been founded in 2007 as a holding company for a set of media assets purchased from Wilmington plc; it expanded further by a series of acquisitions, purchasing Business Review from Datamonitor PLC in July 2008,[9] followed by SPG Media Group PLC in November 2008.[10]

Progressive Digital Media acquired Current Analysis Inc in 2014.[11]

On 27 July 2015, Progressive Digital Media announced that it had agreed to acquire Datamonitor Financial, Datamonitor Consumer, MarketLine and Verdict businesses from Informa for a combined cash price of £25m.[12]

In January 2016, Progressive Digital Media bought the GlobalData Holding Ltd business and changed its own name to GlobalData Plc.[13]

GlobalData acquired entertainment publisher Media Business Insight (including Broadcast and Screen International) in June 2022.[14]

The company moved from the Alternative investment Market to the main market in March 2026.[15]
