Who we are
A holding company for market research technology
Jackson Square Group is a New Orleans based holding company that primarily invests in market research technology firms such as Federated Sample.
What we do
Build it, back it, run it
Build
Market research technology that automates a process which had been manual — and imperfect at best.
Back
A holding company that invests in the firms it builds. Federated Sample was the first.
Run
Software for the online sample marketplace: buyers, sellers and the platform between them.
Portfolio
The first software release
Federated Sample connected buyers and sellers of online sample in one integrated platform. Its Fulcrum software became the operating business behind Jackson Square Group.
“We aren’t just launching a business; we are a part of rebuilding New Orleans.”
Patrick Comer, CEO — letter on the launch of Jackson Square Group, May 2010
Client login. The original site carried a client login that opened a data portal on the company’s own domain. That portal is gone with the domain, so this rebuild describes it rather than linking to it.
