NZZ Media Group buys Bindexis
The NZZ Media Group expands its portfolio to include the construction information service Bindexis. The Group is thus continuing its growth strategy in the Business Media business area.
The NZZ Media Group acquires all shares in Bindexis Bauinformationen. The information platform for all those directly or indirectly involved in construction becomes part of the Group's Business Media division. In addition to information services, this business unit also includes conferences and trade media. Veit Dengler, CEO of NZZ Media Group, in a statement: "Bindexis fits perfectly with our strategy of further growth in the B2B sector and increasingly exploiting cooperation potential within Business Media."
Founded in 2007, the Bindexis platform is based in Basel. It collects all building permits in Switzerland, enriches them with further information and puts this sales and marketing knowledge on over 60,000 building projects on Bindexis.ch available. For example, providers of construction services and products can apply for work on future construction projects at an early stage. Bindexis CEO Thomas Schoenauer is convinced that Bindexis will be able to better exploit its growth opportunities as part of the NZZ media group: "Integration into the group's technology and marketing processes will enable us to target our customers more effectively and expand our customer base more quickly."
The Bindexis offering complements the existing portfolio of the NZZ Media Group, in particular the offerings of Architonic, the international market-leading online community for architecture and design, and the business information platform Moneyhouse. Stefan Schärer, CEO of Moneyhouse: "Together we can develop additional and improved offerings, such as expanding our newly launched smart data products for SMEs for the construction industry."
