London and Vision360 Launch Business Intelligence
Dashboard
Dashboard set to improve visibility
for foreign business opportunities and investment
London, UK – 15th October 2007.
Innovative Digital Media Agency, Vision360
and Think London, London’s official
foreign direct investment agency, have today launched
a Business Intelligence Dashboard – a new resource
for foreign investors to evaluate business opportunities
in London.
The web-based Dashboard (www.thinklondon.com/dashboard)
graphically presents up-to-date information on London’s
economy, population, opportunities around the 2012
Games and excellent future prospects including detailed
analysis of individual business sectors. It
draws from a vast range of sources to provide a unique
on-line resource, that brings together all the information
sources a multi-national needs to make appropriate
decisions when setting up operations in London.
Valuable tools and services such as sector breakdowns,
maps, video testimonials, customisable slide sets
and more, are also available to visitors.
"With a market forecast to grow at more
than $80 billion over the next five years, London
and the 2012 Games represent a tremendous growth opportunity
for current and potential foreign businesses.
The dashboard enables clients to easily drill down
to the hard facts behind this to gain of view
of what it means for their business," said Brendan
Dineen, Director of Marketing and 2012 Games for Think
London. "With the new dashboard we can
engage with international businesses in an exciting
and effective way. It is already a key component
of our branded taxi which will visit major cities
in key markets, including across the US, Canada, China,
India and Europe, as part of our 2012 Global Roadshow."
He continued: "The contract for the development
of the dashboard was put out to tender and Vision360
responded with a clear understanding of our business
objective. They have put a huge amount of time
and energy into designing a solution that would serve
us and our clients well. It is an innovative
design, well thought out and executed. Finally
- and something that is very important to us -
the Vision360 team engaged in this project as our
partners from start to finish which makes all the
difference."
Richard Lucas, Agency Director, Vision360 commented:
“We decided to take a creative design-led approach
for this project, as getting the visual element right
was critical to ensure success with an increasing
& returning customer base. Working in a
consultative fashion, as the project delivery team
has proved, was very successful and we look forward
to continuing our relationship with Think London across
other aspects of their 2012 Games programme.”
