Our take

Ascentia dates back to 1887 when it was founded as a newspaper investment company. Its shift into business analysis and optimisation can be traced to its acquisition of Glenigan, a provider of leads and information for the construction industry in 1996. This move has evolved into an umbrella of companies which are today listed on the London Stock Exchange and the FTSE 250 Index.

After selling off many of its newspaper subsidiaries between the 90s and the 00s, Ascential utilised its catalogue of business insight to expand into events, commerce, marketing and retail. It now owns dozens of businesses that provide information on markets and help businesses grow.

Ascential continues to grow internationally. In 2022, an intuitive move saw the company invest in Berlin and Singapore-based eCommerce and analytics startups. It has proven that despite being a legacy company, it still has its ear to the ground to elevate the next generation of digital media and marketing tools.
