About

Leading provider of first-party purchase intent data and demand generation solutions for the B2B technology sector

TechTarget is a leading B2B media and data intelligence company headquartered in Newton, Massachusetts, United States, serving the global technology industry. Founded in 1999, the company operates an extensive network of technology-specific websites and editorial brands — including SearchSecurity, SearchStorage, and dozens of others — that attract millions of IT professionals and business decision-makers actively researching technology purchases. This content ecosystem generates rich first-party behavioral data, which TechTarget packages into its proprietary purchase intent intelligence platform, enabling technology vendors to identify and engage buyers who are actively in-market. TechTarget's core offering, the Priority Engine platform, aggregates and analyzes behavioral signals from its owned media properties to surface accounts and individuals showing the highest purchase intent. This data-driven approach allows B2B technology marketers to prioritize outreach, personalize messaging, and accelerate pipeline development. The company also offers content syndication, display advertising, custom content creation, and account-based marketing (ABM) solutions, making it a full-funnel demand generation partner for technology vendors of all sizes. In 2023, TechTarget completed a significant merger with Informa Tech's digital businesses, combining its intent data capabilities with Informa's extensive portfolio of technology media brands and events, substantially expanding its reach and data assets. The company trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker TTGT and competes with players such as Foundry (IDG), Bombora, and G2 in the B2B intent data and technology media space. TechTarget's unique position as both a media publisher and a data intelligence provider gives it a defensible first-party data advantage in an increasingly privacy-conscious digital advertising landscape.
