For those of you that haven’t heard, I have started the Dating and Discovery Advisory Service at Corante Research.

Market focused and driven, Corante Research enlists some of the sector’s top analysts to track, analyze and explain emerging technologies and their impact on business and society. We consult with entrepreneurs breaking new ground in their industries, enterprises seeking to apply new technologies, and investors looking to gain extraordinary returns. Our goal is to provide incisive and actionable analysis and advisory services to our clients.

Stowe Boyd, Corante’s president and managing director of Corante Research, has brought me aboard recently to serve as the managing director of the new Corante Dating and Discovery Advisory Service. This service is geared toward the needs of online dating and social networking companies, and the technology providers, value-added services, financial resources and consumer brands participating in the marketplace.

Our model is to only become involved in long-term engagements with a focus on strategic initiatives. We provide regular and in-depth consultation with our clients on the challenges confronting them.

Expertise and Focus

David and Stowe have deep expertise in the online dating industry and related social tools, such as social networking and related online communities. These researchers have worked with dozens of companies in this market, and have spoken and written widely on the challenges confronting the industry today.

If you would like to learn more about working with Corante Research, send me an email and I’ll be happy to go into greater detail about our services and how we can work togther. I’ll be at iDate if you want to schedule some time by the pool to talk.
