Gale Is Listening!

摘要

Like many of the large companies operating in the library market, Thomson Gale is emerging from its recent purchase, by private equity investors Apax Partners and OMERS Capital Partners, with its immediate plans intact. Shortly after the acquisition, Thomson Gale's Jay Flynn, VP and publisher, and Nader Qaimari, senior director, paid a visit to LJ's Manhattan digs. Although unable to shed any significant light on what direction the new owners may take the firm—other than the likelihood of losing the Thomson part of the name—the two said the business plan is essentially to make the last two years' investment in R & D pay off.
