Data Mobility Group

What Data Mobility Group does

Data Mobility Group, LLC is a privately held research and advisory firm founded in 2002 and headquartered in Milford, New Hampshire, specializing in information management and storage technology markets. The firm serves technology vendors, end-user enterprises, and investors in three primary segments: Healthcare (where it focuses on clinical information management, HIPAA compliance, retention, and data protection), Small and Medium Businesses (with emphasis on IT governance, global rollouts, and large-scale project management), and Enterprise (focused on sales organization development, channel strategy, and market penetration). Its delivery model is sales-led and human-driven, with a 12-month subscription priced at $10,000 for new clients and $8,000 for renewals, including 8 hours of advisory time, early access to published research 6-12 months ahead of public release, press and customer Q&A, and up to 70% discounts on additional consultative services such as due diligence, survey-based market research, competitive analyses, white papers, ghostwriting, speaking engagements, and distribution rights.

The company's "product" is fundamentally the expertise of its small team of senior analysts, whose collective practitioner experience is claimed at over 280 years and whose individual backgrounds span IBM, Cisco, McAfee, Hewlett-Packard, Xerox, Unisys, Lockheed Martin, McKesson, and other technology and healthcare-IT organizations. There is no software platform, no API, no app, and no AI/ML component disclosed in the source material; all advisory work is delivered by named analysts and supported by a proprietary research library built over 15+ years. Strategic Knowledge Sciences (SKS), led by Director of Sales Advisory Services Steven Sprenger, and Strategic Knowledge Group, led by SMB advisor John Attora, function as core partnership extensions. The firm is governed as an LLC under New Hampshire law, has 1-10 employees, has no disclosed parent company, has no subsidiaries, has not raised external funding, and shows no M&A activity.
