DeHavilland is a political data and monitoring company that provides bespoke analysis and real-time political intelligence in the UK and Europe to a wide range of organisations, including corporates, non-profits and consultancies.
Founded in 1998, the company’s technology platform harvests data from a wide range of sources, including government, parliamentary and EU websites, Select Committees, press releases, civil service databases, political blogs and Twitter. This ensures that Public Affairs teams have full visibility of all relevant regulatory and political developments.
The service is typically done via annual subscription contracts, with clients accessing information via a number of different mechanisms such as tailored email alerts, a searchable database, focused reports and real-time streams of information. It also has a SaaS CRM platform, ‘PeoplePoint’, which contains up-to-date contact details of key organisations and individuals.
The addressable UK market for political intelligence spend is growing and is underpinned by an increasing number of organisations investing in Public Affairs teams as they attempt to keep pace with a rapidly changing regulatory and legislative environment.
The investment in DeHavilland is made by Bridgepoint Growth, a UK-focused fund targeting fast-growing businesses.
