bmp media investors AG: bmp acquires stake in ferret go GmbH
bmp media investors AG (ISIN DE0003304200) has acquired a 9.76% stake in
Bernau-based ferret go GmbH.
ferret go GmbH offers a scalable SaaS solution for analysing web content
that supports companies in media monitoring. The analysis provides them
with results about how their company, their brands and individual products
are reported on in various media environments.
In addition, ferret has developed a sentiment analysis process that allows
it to analyse even complex content and determine its tonality. With its web
technology and on the basis of computer-linguistic processes, ferret
examines online newspapers, blogs, communities and traditional print media
with the aim of identifying moods and makes the results available virtually
in real-time.
'Our investment is to support ferret in pressing further ahead with its
market launch in particular. We see not only individual companies and
institutions as users of the solution, but also consider it very suitable
in cooperations with publishing companies and traditional media monitoring
companies,' says Jens Spyrka, an Executive Board member of bmp media
investors AG.
'Automated trend and opinion mining processes are also becoming more
important in the media analysis market. The evaluation of immense volumes
of data must take place quickly, efficiently and reliably. This is a
segment that is highly interesting for ferret. We are therefore all the
more pleased to have an experienced partner like bmp at our side that has a
deep understanding of the technology behind our products and their role in
the SaaS business for business applications,' says Andreas Nickel, Managing
Director of ferret go GmbH.
