Abstract

A method for providing business information comprises receiving a request, a selected industry, and a selected region, then generating report data, and providing a printable industry report. The industry report has charts and a map and is divided into a national market overview section, a market dynamics section, and a company information section. A system for providing business information has an application server, a web server, and a memory, such as a database. The application server fabricates a data product. The web server processes requests from the application server and provides the data product in an industry report. The web server includes charting and mapping components. For rapid retrieval, the database stores a table of company information.
