MindBranch Branches Out To New Location

MindBranch Inc., the largest online aggregator of forecasts, reports and data from over 265 well known and specialty research publishers, announced today the relocation of their office to accommodate the explosive growth the company has enjoyed this year. An open house ceremony is being held from 4pm-8pm on Tuesday, November 28th, in the new three floor, 20,000 square foot site located at 37 Main Street. MindBranch will not only celebrate their new space, but will also be awarded the H1-B grant from the U.S. Department of Labor. The H1-B, a fund set up to implement high-tech training programs within local businesses, will be presented by Congressman John Olver, and will help provide workers in Berkshire County with the knowledge and skills needed to fill the many high-tech jobs emerging in the region.

"Our celebration is two-fold," explains Alton Adams, CEO, MindBranch. "Not only have our accomplishments over the last year enabled us to move to a larger, more centralized location, but it has afforded us recognition by the U.S. Department of Labor. This grant will provide us with a large pool of skilled individuals to help contribute to our ongoing success."

In recent months they have secured $18.5 million in funding from Village Ventures, Inc., their workforce has doubled and the company has evolved from a strictly product based Web site to a complete service, offering one-stop-shopping for market research and business intelligence.
