Counterpoint Acquires DSCC

Technology industry research firm Counterpoint Research announced yesterday that it has acquired display industry specialist Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC). Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Formed in 2016, DSCC provides data, insights and analysis on the $120 billion display market through syndicated reports, consultation, and events. The company has offices in key manufacturing and market centers in East Asia, the US and UK.

According to Counterpoint Research, the acquisition will allow it to expand its display research capabilities and broaden its coverage of supply chain and components markets. By combining DSCC’s panel shipment and supply chain data with Counterpoint’s country-level device sales data, the company aims to offer higher levels of insight across the technology sector.

DSCC CEO Ross Young noted that access to Counterpoint’s vast data and insights will bring significant value to DSCC’s existing clients by allowing the company to refine its forecasts. The acquisition facilitates Counterpoint’s expansion into new product segments where DSCC already has a strong presence, such as advanced displays. Together, the companies aim to drive more innovation in the research and insights they provide to clients across the technology sector.
