There had been rumors about a change in the company structure of contentmine (kpa photo archive and central order motion) since a couple of weeks. Now Sheldon Marshall, Executive Chairman of Heritage Partners, has acquired a stake of contentmine.
Previous Sheldon Marshall had been the CEO of the Visual Communications
Group (a holding of numerous photo agencies which was sold to Getty
Images for a non disclosed price - rumors expect the deal to be in the
area of $200 - $250 million - in late 2000). He has worked as Vice
Chairman and Deputy Chairman for ImageState in 2002 and entered the stock photo agency Nonstock (which was recently sold to PictureArts) in 2003. UK-based Heritage Images named Sheldon Marshall as Executive
Chairman in May 2004.
