About Cision

About Us Overview

Cision provides world-class media intelligence services to executives and individuals employed in a range of disciplines, including public relations, investor relations, marketing, and corporate communications.

Most of the Fortune 500 companies are among our client base, but we also provide media intelligence to small firms, PR agencies, non-profits and governmental organizations. Our broad range of services share one common aim – to help our clients become more efficient, effective, and ultimately more successful in their field of expertise.

Since its founding in 1932, Cision, formerly Bacon's Information, has grown along with the communications industries it serves, evolving from its simple start to its present-day status as one of the world’s most extensive media intelligence and information services companies.

As Bacon's, the company was acquired in 2001 by Observer - the largest, publicly traded media intelligence firm in the world. In April, 2007, Bacon's and all Observer Group companies became Cision. Cision operates globally, and has a presence in more than a dozen countries worldwide.

The Cision North American management team brings together individuals with a broad range of expertise and education, providing superior quality of service to the clients whom they serve. Cision US is headquartered in Chicago, with offices in more than two dozen locations throughout the US – for more information visit our office locations page.
