After 7+years of skirting around the focus of Taxonomies, Ontologies, and Semantics, I have finally dedicated myself to the Dow Jones Client Solutions Synaptica business in order to fully utilize my background in Library & Information Science. As Business Development Manager for Synaptica, I am responsible for growing the business by providing services to clients and working with Partners.
Today businesses are recognizing the need for controlled vocabularies to organize content and solve the speed and precision demands of very-large-scale information retrieval. We help businesses and organizations harness the power of controlled vocabulary thesauri, taxonomies and indexes to produce state-of-the-art information retrieval systems and products. We are dedicated to excellence in our software products and our editorial services, and our consulting group aims to provide in-depth analysis of client needs and impartial advice about appropriate and cost-effective strategies.
