GlobalSpec has joined Frost & Sullivan's Strategic Partnership Consortium in the category of on-line marketing solutions for the industrial sector.

Frost & Sullivan instituted the Strategic Partnership Consortium to showcase members' best-in-class positioning in their respective fields.  Strategic Partners, as global thought leaders, work together to bring targeted clients a constant flow of innovative ideas, opportunities and strategies to help drive revenue growth.

The foundation for this program is based on Frost & Sullivan's Growth, Innovation and Leadership events, which are held in major cities around the world.  This program also leverages community websites, newsletters, analyst briefings, and webcasts to bring a constant flow of value to clients and Partners alike.  Participation as a Strategic Partner strengthens brand, generates significant qualified leads, positions a company in front of a global community of business leaders, and provides significant competitive advantage.

"Frost & Sullivan formed the Strategic Partnership Consortium to connect our clients with best-in-class companies and solutions that best address their growth objectives," explains Art Robbins, President, North America, for Frost & Sullivan.  "The SPC program is delighted to have GlobalSpec join this select group of companies, whose expertise is pooled as a resource that provides invaluable benefits for Frost & Sullivan's clients."

As Strategic Partners, GlobalSpec and Frost & Sullivan will work closely together to deliver best-practice solutions to both firms' clients.

"For nearly 15 years, GlobalSpec has been helping engineering, technical and industrial professionals conduct work-related tasks more efficiently and working with manufacturers to reach this audience and grow their businesses via online marketing solutions," explains Jeff Killeen, chairman and CEO of GlobalSpec.  "It was a natural fit to partner with Frost & Sullivan.  We value the relationship and the benefits it offers to our joint clients."

GlobalSpec joins other Frost & Sullivan Strategic Partners, including PR Newswire, ON24, Conseq, and Eloqua.  "They are clearly a thought leader," adds Robbins.
