Hi Stephen,
We're working on behalf of Hemscott to identify bloggers and online opinion formers in the UK investment community.

Hemscott is a leading international provider of high quality business & financial data and investor relations services. As a web-centric business, Hemscott believes that users’ perceptions and feedback are paramount to improving their products. Therefore, the company has set up a programme to engage with its customers and the wider investor community online, and to promote Hemscott products and services in an honest and transparent way. The aim of this campaign is to generate debate on the business and financial data sector and, specifically, to raise market awareness of the Hemscott Premium + service.
To this end, we're offering selected bloggers and opinion formers one year of completely free access to the Hemscott Premium + service (Details: http://www.hemscott.com/services/premium.do?partner=Carve)
Hemscott Premium + provides investors with the most sophisticated in-depth financial news, information and tools. Exclusive features for dedicated investors include the ability to download fundamentals, annual reports and transfer P&L balance sheets, streaming news and stock tracker.
