Crimson Hexagon Opens European HQ

US-based social media analysis firm Crimson Hexagon has opened European headquarters on London's South Bank.

The firm has had a presence in the Regent Street, London since mid-2012, and its new European HQ - which should allow for a doubling of London staff numbers by the end of 2014 - is based in the WeWork London collaborative workspace and community close to the river Thames. From this new space, the firm will continue to offer access to its ForSight platform, which is powered by patented technology and an in-house data library of more than 500 billion posts gathered from blogs, forums, consumer review sites, news sites, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google+ and Sina Weibo posts, as well as the full Twitter Firehose.

John Donnelly, SVP of Global Sales & Marketing, says the new European office will provide the 'perfect fit' for Crimson Hexagon's clients based across the region. 'Our global expansion is building momentum, with 40 percent year-on-year revenue growth. London is the epicentre for many global brands, and this new European office in one of the capital's most creative business environments is a perfect fit for us.'
