Apps, aerospace, alt energy and beyond: more Plunkett Industry Almanacs online for SFU researchers!

A bit of good news on this chilly January morning: we've recently added several new industry almanacs to our Plunkett Research Online collection.

Each of these almanacs devotes hundreds of pages to...

• major trends that are creating rapid changes in their target industry,  
• in-depth statistics on sales, manufacturing, employment and more,
• key contacts (associations, government agencies, and internet sites), and a
• detailed directories of major firms, complete with high-level financial data and growth plans.

Plunkett industry almanacs are a useful supplement to our other industry reports, such as those in our IBISWorld database.  They don't generally contain much analysis, but they often provide the information you need to start analyzing potential markets yourself. 

Anyway... enough talking... here are the new almanacs available to all SFU researchers... Enjoy!
