BLOOMBERG LAW RECEIVES GOLD AT AMERICAN BUSINESS AWARDS
Bloomberg Law Honored as Best New Product, Business-to-Business,
With the 2012 Gold Stevie® Award

New York – The American Business Awards^SM presented Bloomberg Law with the 2012 Gold Stevie Award for Best New Product, Business-to-Business, at its 10^th annual awards program, held in San Francisco. Bloomberg Law is the innovative new legal research system from the world leader in data and information services.

Bloomberg Law has revolutionized the legal research industry with a truly integrated platform.  Its all-inclusive, transparent and predictable pricing means that every user has the same unrestricted, unlimited access to the information in its databases. In September 2011, Bloomberg acquired BNA, a leading source of legal, regulatory and business information for professionals. The integration of Bloomberg BNA books, law reports, Portfolios, manuals and headnotes to Bloomberg Law provides subscribers with a wealth of authoritative resources.

“It is an honor to be recognized as the Best New Product, Business-to-Business, by the American Business Awards,” said Greg McCaffery, Bloomberg Law CEO. “This is particularly meaningful coming on the heels of Bloomberg Law’s selection as New Product of the Year by the American Association of Law Libraries. Being selected as a best new product by these two prestigious organizations in the same year, is a strong acknowledgement of Bloomberg Law’s position as a leader at the intersection of business and legal research.”

The American Business Awards are the nation’s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small. More than 3,000 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories.
