THOMSON REUTERS ACQUIRES BRAND PROTECTION COMPANY MARKMONITOR

Anthony Ha@anthonyha / Invalid DateTime•
comment Comment

Thomson Reuters announced today that it has made a deal to acquire a brand
protection company called MarkMonitor for an undisclosed sum.

The MarkMonitor website says the company offers a suite of products and services
that include brand protection (i.e., protecting trademarks and commerce),
anti-piracy, anti-fraud, and domain management. The Wikimedia Foundation
recently moved all of its sites from GoDaddy to MarkMonitor (as noted by The
Next Web). The company says it serves more than half of the brands on the
Fortune 100.

MarkMonitor has more than 400 employees in five countries, and the team
(including CEO Irfan Salim) will be joining Thomson Reuters. In the press
release, Thomson Reuters’ president of IP & Science Chris Kibarian describes the
acquisition as “the beginning of a transformational shift within the
Intellectual Property & Science business of Thomson Reuters.”



Investors in MarkMonitor include Cargill Ventures, Focus Ventures, Foundation
Capital, and Institutional Venture Partners.
