LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Specialist information and analytics company Ascential said on Monday that it has bought OneSpace, a content optimisation business serving brands trading on eCommerce marketplaces, for an undisclosed sum.
Underpinned by its SaaS model, OneSpace manages product specific content catalogues, enables the creation of original material and customises content in order to drive higher sales across multiple products and marketplaces.

The company serves, on a subscription basis, more than 60 consumer packaged goods (CPG) customers in the US market.
