Year in review

June 2001: Silver Platter acquired by WK Wolters-Kluwer

Independent market research (customers, employees, partners)

2001 -2002: Integration with Ovid– One company – two brands– 11 offices with 400 employees globally

Year in review

June 2003: WK creates MIP business unit (Medical Information Professionals)

2002 -2003: electronic access to LWW titles transferred from IPS to Ovid Online

What direction? Strategy update

Wolters Kluwer will focus on Science, Health and Medicine

Ovid and SilverPlatter: move to a single platform with “best of both worlds”

Ovid Online platform as foundation

Why? Strategy update

Market research results:

-Customers rank same features and tools as important

-Customers see health and science as Ovid’s core strenghts

- 80% of SIlverPlatter customers fall in HS

Why? Strategy update

Technology:

-Ovid Online platform is the most complete: books, journals, databases

- Ovid specializes in the electronic delivery of information – no legacy systems

- LWW is a specialist in developing top quality content in the medical fields, and delivering this content in traditional methods (i.e. print)

When? Strategy update

Ovid and SilverPlatter will consolidate in a single platform over time!

– ERL will remain until significant customer demand

– Unique SP content and tools must be moved to the Ovid interface first

– New unique features will be developed for the new platform

When? Strategy update

Institutional access to LWW journals became exclusive to the Ovid Online platform in July 2002

IPS will continue to provide access to LWW journals for unaffiliated clinicians (thousands!)
