The multi-national business-to-business (B2B) data service, EuroContactPool, is to be made available to companies in Austria for the first time.

The move is expected to help drive Austria?s expanding export economy, which grew by more than 12 per cent from 2010 to 2011, by enabling Austrian companies to access prospect customers across Europe. Austria is particularly engaged in Central and Eastern Europe and EuroContactPool is planning to cover data and market information on those areas as well, in the near future.

EuroContactPool will be offered in Austria under the Hoppenstedt brand, part of the pan-European business information provider, Bisnode, which employs 3,000 people in 17 countries. This will enable Hoppenstedt to combine strong local market knowledge with high-quality European data.

Bisnode?s decision to expand EuroContactPool into Austria enables it to position its accurate international B2B data services against those of other providers, aiming to reinforce its position as a major business information brand. It forms part of a Europe-wide investment by Bisnode which has already seen EuroContactPool launched in nine European countries this year.

EuroContactPool?s database covers 26 million contacts in 16 countries and is expanding. The data is compiled by selecting the best partner in each market, ensuring its constant freshness and reliability.

Dieter Bodingbauer, MD, said: ?We are launching a unique service in Austria, providing the largest pool of European contact data to Austria?s export-driven companies.?

Austrian businesses will be rolling out the services in phases beginning with Data Delivery (sourcing), then Data Quality (cleaning, enhancing and updating) and finally Data Intelligence (combining, analysing and appending data).
