Working together, the organizations will be able to offer precise, like-for-like comparisons across every major region.

'We have depended on CONTEXT data and IDC analysis for many years. This global availability across EMEA, US, and APAC will enable us to operate with an unprecedented level of precision and efficiency.'

CONTEXT, with its global expertise in supply chains and distribution sales data in Europe and the Middle East, will lead the Distributor Panel for Europe, and the Middle East. The GTDC, whose members will contribute daily invoiced sales data, will complete the new, expanded panel.

'Formalizing these relationships and combining CONTEXT's data processing with IDC's industry-leading data and analysis will synergize distribution data across the US, EMEA, and now APAC. It represents a remarkable opportunity for both vendors and distributors to optimize their global business operations.' 'At CONTEXT, our work with supply-chain panelists extends across 46 countries. This exciting new partnership with IDC allows us to provide our acknowledged best-in-class market intelligence to distributors and vendors with the broadest global reach,' states Howard Davies, CONTEXT CEO. Frank Vitagliano, CEO at Global Technology Distribution Council (GTDC) said, 'We are incredibly excited to be partnering with CONTEXT and IDC in Asia Pacific to develop the first truly global market data source for sales through distribution channels.
