Jul 12, 2007 : Landmark Acquires Digital Envoy
📅 - Media company Landmark Communications (landmarkcom.com) announced on Thursday it has acquired IP intelligence and geolocation technology provider Digital Envoy (digitalenvoy.net).
Digital Envoy offers a richer, safer and more personalized Internet user experience by providing privacy-compliant solutions to the anonymity barriers associated with the Internet. Using its patented IP intelligence and geolocation technology, Digital Envoy enables online businesses to non-invasively uncover information about online users such as their real-time location, connection speed and host domain.

The acquisition continues Landmark's strategy of acquiring leading providers of Internet services and online marketing solutions with excellent growth opportunities. "Digital Envoy has demonstrated strong technological leadership by building upon the intellectual property it initially developed to allow media properties to target online users," says Michael Alston, president of Landmark Interactive, a division of Landmark Communications. "Through Digital Element and Digital Resolve, the company is addressing many of the biggest challenges associated with conducting business in the online world, including creating more meaningful interactions with customers and safeguarding against fraud and identity theft."
