Global research powerhouse IDC has released their 10 Canadian Web 2.0 Companies to Watch list today and Mark MacLeod of StartupCFO was kind enough to republish the companies online.
This IDC study profiles 10 relatively small Canadian-based companies offering Web 2.0 solutions that IDC believes are worthy of highlighting to the broader industry and have the potential to make an impact in the information and communication technology (ICT) market. This study provides a review of each company's technology and go-to-market strategy and a customer example. It concludes with some of the overarching trends IDC is seeing in this market, the strategies and characteristics these 10 companies share, and essential guidance and analysis. This study also provides valuable input for ICT vendors large and small, investors, government, and service providers to identify success factors employed by emerging Canadian vendors with Web 2.0 solutions.
The 30-page report was written by IDC Canadian ICT Innovation analyst Krista Collins and it's available for $3,500. Ouch. Anybody have a copy?
