Press Release
Artprice by Artmarket has unveiled its new website, solidifying its position as the go-to platform for the online Art Market.
[ad_1]
PARIS, Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — After the brilliantly successful launch of the new version of Artprice.com by Artmarket at the beginning of September, our initial analyses and statistics show an overwhelmingly positive response from our customers and new users as well as a very considerable increase in logged activity (+441%) on a 10-month moving average basis. This surge in activity is expected to directly translate into a substantial boost in our revenue.
(See: https://www.artprice.com)
Artprice by Artmarket now offers a completely new website that was redesigned in collaboration with the Vahumana team (TRSb Group) of high-level external consultants closely involved in the audit, development, and complete overhaul of Artprice since 2018, using a solid UI/UX approach. UX and UI (User Experience and User Interface) both rely on user-centric approaches to website design.
This new intuitive and user-friendly website, with simplified access, has brought together the numerous high value-added data banks of Artprice.com, its subsidiaries, and its numerous departments, thus allowing easy and direct access to the most important, most relevant, and most exhaustive information on the art market.
Particular attention has been paid to the development of our mobile version. It’s not merely a scaled-down “app” version, which might struggle to capture the full richness of the desktop experience and would remain reliant on operating systems with their continuous cycle of upgrades and fixes.
The feedback from customers and members is unanimous: “The new site is so much more pleasant to use and allows you to navigate through rich and varied content.”
Customers and users are discovering information they never knew existed. The change is so dramatic that some users think Artprice has been involved in a merger or an acquisition! For its financial partners and shareholders, this new version represents a real “game changer”.
The new intuitive search bar, in a central position, offers instant access to a comprehensive tree structure around the subject of the search, which ultimately generates an increase in the time spent on Artprice.com.
Our new search engine instantly connects to information on 821,500 artists, 16,261,100 auction results, and price-index data (including 1,087,500 auction lots referenced over the last 12 months from 7,200 auction houses around the globe) and to all the art market data in our databanks stretching back to the 4th century.
Artprice by Artmarket thus offers the world’s most elaborate and exhaustive search engine on the art market and solidly confirms its reputation as the World Leader in Art Market Information for the past 25 years.
Test it and you will see! The universal search bar shows all the possible information available around the element searched: artists, works in future and past auctions, art market indices, works available on our standardized Artprice.com Marketplace, relevant articles in our ArtMarketInsight® archive, art market reports (annual, semestrial, segment-focused, etc.) and of course, all the relevant data and images in our databases (including signatures and monograms, catalogs raisonnés, archived historical data, etc.) that has been selected, checked and digitally recorded from the colossal archives that Artprice has purchased around the world over the past 25 years (see Artmarket.com’s Universal Registration Document as filed with the AMF – France’s Financial Markets Authority).
Artprice.com by Artmarket’s use of algorithmic AI for its own Intuitive Artmarket ® AI also allows access to very relevant and highly personalized recommendations concerning artists, works, sales, and even art history – allowing users to go infinitely further in their discovery and knowledge of the art market.
Artprice Images® allows unlimited access to the largest collection of art market images in the world, with its collection of manuscripts and sales catalogs forming a physical and digital library made up of 180 million images or engravings of artworks from 1700 to the present day, all commented by our art historians.
In this highly specific economic sector, no art market-related company in the world has such a massive volume of ultra-qualified and proprietary data, with the original paper archives representing a very important asset and an almost impregnable barrier to entry.
It’s worth noting that Artprice by Artmarket has achieved the prestigious distinction of receiving France’s state-endorsed ‘Innovative Company’ label for two consecutive years—an accomplishment that is quite rare among companies listed on regulated markets. This esteemed recognition is bestowed following rigorous eligibility criteria and is conferred by the Banque Publique d’Investissement (bpifrance).
Artprice’s new online architecture integrates new communication spaces for advertisers, with a back-office for the completely autonomous management of their advertisements. The 2023/2024 target for Artprice by Artmarket is to double its turnover.
According to thierry Ehrmann, President of Artmarket.com and Founder of Artprice: “More than ever, the Art Market reflects the world we live in: a world that cherishes all that is beautiful and rare, most of which is finite. We must therefore constantly reinvent by creating new ways to enrich our souls.”
We are seeing a new phase of market acceleration, driven by a growing number of new collectors, particularly in Greater Asia, eager to participate in the exchange of artworks, a commerce that is an integral part of our humanity.
With the 2023/2024 dedicated advertising spaces our customers will intuitively dive into the heart of Art Market news and will be privileged players within a human and informative approach.
After several months of consultations with users, we have refined the user interface of our Standardized Marketplace to streamline the process of accessing artworks available for sale, whether through fixed pricing or auctions, as well as facilitating the seamless posting of online advertisements. The target is to substantially increase the flow of transactions in a market where roughly 70,000 artworks are available every day.
As planned in its 2023/2024 calendar, Artprice has therefore opened its paid spaces (in compliance with IAB standards) to the art market. This historic opening implies a radical change in our economic model, with paying advertisers fully integrated into its databases and services, its Artists pages, and its Web 3.0. However, every effort will be made to ensure the discretion of the advertising in terms of design and ergonomics for its clients and subscribing members.
The new digital modules available to its advertisers offer a multitude of locations, with choices of language, media, duration, and prices, while harmoniously respecting the primary raison d’être of providing access to Artprice’s databases, which remains our company’s fundamental DNA.
The significant and highly successful rollout of Artprice’s IT infrastructure will generate new turnover from paid new subscriptions and new revenue from advertising that will be fully integrated into the Artprice by Artmarket databases and services, allowing advertisers complete control over their digital campaigns. Together, these new sources of income should double our company’s turnover within 12 months.
As regards the advertising revenue, our principal targets are of course the 7,200 auction houses around the world, the vast majority of whom have been affiliated with Artprice for more than two decades and 98% of whom now announce their physical or digital sales on the Internet (including their post-Covid “online sales”).
The second group of potential advertisers are organizers of Art World events such as fairs and exhibitions which are mushrooming on all five continents of the globe. In the Contemporary and Modern Art segments alone, Artprice counts nearly 400 such events.
And who will their advertising be aimed at? The 18,000 fine art valuers and appraisers, the art insurers, the 32,000 galleries, and the 4,500 art museums and institutions around the world, all will benefit from highly targeted digital communication.
All these potential advertisers and their targets are customers who have subscribed to Artprice’s databases for a very long time.
The 7,200 global auction houses affiliated with Artprice can now highlight their future sales with extremely relevant targeting, in paid advertiser mode, according to very specific search criteria, while strictly respecting European (GDPR) and American laws on personal data of Artprice’s 7.2 million customers and members.
Remember, for over 70 years now the standard economic model of an auction house includes an advertising budget to announce details of public sales that represents 34% of its overall costs, regardless of the country or the size of the operator. With the advent of digital advertising making it possible to respond instantly to advertisers, this budget can only grow.
In practice, auction houses hosting meticulously cataloged sales, regardless of their scale, gain insight into artworks that may potentially remain unsold due to a lack of buyers or unmet reserve prices. This information is typically conveyed through purchase orders or ATPs (Advance Payment Terms), which they receive approximately 3 to 4 days prior to each auction.
In such cases, the auction house is ready to deploy ultra-targeted digital campaigns in a few hours to make the most of its upcoming sale. Only Artprice, with its data centers, it’s engineering, and its processes can respond to this type of request, 24 hours a day, and on a global scale.
In summary, the new online version of Artprice.com by Artmarket is a real paradigm shift, but it remains 100% faithful to the historical DNA of Artprice and to the primordial postulate of its founder, thierry Ehrmann – to make art market information as accessible and transparent to the widest possible population. Artprice’s historic alliance with the first global press agency dedicated to art market news and information, Cision PR Newswire (reaching 119 countries in 18 different languages) is an integral part of this strategy.

Press Release
New Study Reveals Majority of Indians Prioritize Nutrition Over Taste, Surpassing Global Average
[ad_1]
Based on a recent survey of urban Indian consumers:
-
Nine out of 10 consumers are searching for protein-rich food compared to seven out of 10 global shoppers. -
The top four qualities consumers look for when buying snacks are (1) natural, (2) heart-healthy, (3) protein-rich and (4) energy-source, all of which come before satisfying cravings. -
Nuts have emerged as one of the most popular snacking choices, with 86% of Indian shoppers report having purchased them in a span of 6 months. -
Urban Indians read nutrition labels more than the global average, reflecting a growing trend towards informed purchasing. -
69% of urban dwellers surveyed have the opinion that plant-based protein is just as good as meat-based protein, exceeding the global average of 55%.
Wonderful Pistachios, the world’s largest grower and processor of pistachios and distributor of California Pistachios in India, released today, World Nutrition Day, the findings of a new global study that sheds light on the snacking habits of urban Indians. The study, commissioned with Material, a leading global research consultancy, included 10 countries and over 12,400 respondents, revealed a new behavioural trend that urban Indian consumers prioritize nutrition over taste when it comes to snacking. This growing preference for healthy snacking emphasizes the importance of good nutrition for overall well-being.
For the India market specifically, the study delved into the snacking habits of 2,415 shoppers across six Indian cities, which represented a population of approximately 35.9 million consumers. Remarkably, a majority of urban Indians (58%) reported basing their food purchasing decisions on nutritional benefits more than taste, exceeding the global average of 52%. Delhi and Ahmedabad lead with over 60% of urban shoppers preferring nutrition in their food. Bengaluru and Chennai follow closely, indicating a nationwide shift towards smarter snacking preferences. In India, Millennials and Gen Z are leading the charge in health-conscious purchasing decisions, with more than 83% of consumers in these age groups reading nutritional labels before buying.
Indian consumers prioritize four key factors when shopping for nutritional snacks: natural (free of artificial colours and preservatives), heart-healthy, protein-rich, and provides energy. Nine out of 10 urban shoppers consciously seek protein-rich food options, compared to the global average of seven out of 10. The focus on nutrition has fueled the rise of nuts as a preferred snack choice, becoming essential to daily eating habits. The study found a staggering consumption of nuts, with 86% of Indian shoppers report purchasing them in a span of 6 months, compared to just 75% globally. With 6g of protein in per 28g serving, California Pistachios are a smart snack choice that provides benefits without sacrificing taste.
Shail Pancholi, Country Director, India, Wonderful Pistachios, commented on the study, saying, “Nuts were traditionally used as garnishes and consumed during festivals, but have now become a popular snack in India, indicating a notable shift in dietary habits. Pistachio consumption in India has doubled in the last six years, as consumer awareness of the nutritional benefits that pistachios offer has grown. Consumers are discovering that pistachios are naturally cholesterol-free, rich in plant-based protein and dietary fiber, and provide over 30 different vitamins and minerals.”
Interestingly, the study found that nuts are the second most preferred snack among urban Indian consumers, with 64% of Baby Boomers and 59% of Gen Z prioritizing nutrition over taste when selecting food. This indicates a growing focus on health across generations, with Baby Boomers focusing on senior wellness and Gen Z reflecting the rise of mindful purchasing. Though on opposite ends of the age spectrum, these two generations take the lead in seeking protein-rich options, as well as preferring natural snacks.
Mumbai tops most of the consideration sets when choosing a snack. Residents opt for natural ingredients (35% vs. the national average of 30%), heart-healthy options (33% vs. 30%), and protein (33% vs. 29%). Chennai residents look for energy-boosting snacks (31% vs. the national average of 29%).
The fact that 69% of urban Indians surveyed have the opinion that that plant-based protein is just as good as meat-based protein reflects a positive shift towards varied dietary preferences. Pistachios are a good source of high-quality complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids. A 28g serving of pistachios provides 6g of protein, which is 11% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) according to FSSAI.
The Wonderful Pistachios study unveils a compelling shift in Indian snacking habits. Nuts are evolving from festive treats to a daily snacking staple, fueled by a nationwide preference for more nutritious options. The trend transcends generations, resonating with Gen Z and Baby Boomers alike, underscoring the growing importance of mindful eating in urban India. As consumers increasingly seek natural, heart-healthy, protein-rich, and energy-boosting snacks, the future of Indian snacking appears to be firmly rooted in nutrition and well-being.

SHENZHEN, China, May 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — By 2040, the burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) is projected to increase to 3.2 million new cases and 1.6 million deaths per year representing a 66% and 71% rise in new cases and deaths respectively relative to 2020.
To better address the global burden of CRC and reduce its impact, BGI Genomics has launched the second edition of its global CRC awareness report, covering 1,938 respondents from Brazil (306), China (367), Poland (300), Saudi Arabia (300), Thailand (362), and Uruguay (303):
CRC Screening Gaps Vary Globally: Nearly half (49.3%) of global respondents have never undergone CRC screening, with the highest proportions in Saudi Arabia (62.0%) and Poland (61.0%).
Preference for Fecal Testing Over Colonoscopy: Although colonoscopies are more recognized (33.4%), fecal tests at healthcare facilities are preferred (31.8%), reflecting a trend towards non-invasive methods.
Cost and Fear are Determinants of Screening Choice: Fear of colonoscopy (18.2%) and screening costs (17.7%) are major barriers to CRC screening. Poland (24.7%) and Uruguay (21.0%) show the highest fear of colonoscopy, while Thailand (24.5%) and Brazil (20%) indicate the most concern about costs.
Medical Advice and Family History Drive CRC Screening: Doctor’s recommendations are a major driver for CRC screening (30.5% globally), with Uruguay showing the highest adherence (44.1%). Additionally, those with a family history of CRC are more proactive in screening (64.5%), compared to the general population (35.0%).
Prof. Varut Lohsiriwat from Mahidol University offers his insights to this report. He suggested: “The essence of effective cancer screening lies in the acceptance and adherence of the patient to the screening method. The best screening method is the one that the patient accepts and adheres to because that’s the method that will actually benefit them.”
Dr. Zhu Shida, BGI Genomics Deputy GM, notes: “At BGI Genomics, we focused our efforts on developing advanced molecular biology testing techniques to close the gap [between acceptance and accessibility]. The ultimate goal is to transform colorectal cancer from a life-threatening disease into a manageable condition through widespread, early screening and intervention.”
For more region-level comparisons, access the full BGI Genomics 2024 State of CRC Awareness Report.
All data involved in this report come from the results of an online survey project conducted by BGI Genomics. It only surveys awareness related to colorectal cancer and does not involve personally identifiable data.
