Thomson Intermedia plc (AIM: THN), a leading provider of media intelligence, has
today signed a partnership agreement with GroupM, owned by WPP Group. GroupM is
the world's leading media agency group which controls more than 25% of the UK's

The partnership will see GroupM and all its agencies use the enhanced and
tailored Thomson Intermedia services and promote the Thomson Intermedia client
system to its customer base of more than 650 of the UK's top advertisers.


The endorsement of the partnership with GroupM supports the growing importance
of Thomson Intermedia's services in the world of media and has been made
possible due to the increasing depth and timeliness of the data and the unique
benefits of Thomson's powerful technology.  This follows recent announcements
detailing Thomson Intermedia's exclusive access to electronic versions of
regional newspapers from the media owners and provides the opportunity for
Thomson Intermedia to expedite growth of its customer base.


Nick Theakstone, COO of GroupM UK commented:


'Thomson Intermedia's systems have now become an essential ingredient in adding
value to our clients, its products aid us in providing clients with accuracy and
timeliness of data.  This partnership will support our desire to provide the
best transparency and vouching products to all our clients.'

'This is an exciting and significant partnership for us, it represents a tipping
point for Thomson Intermedia's products becoming the UK standard and could have
a profound impact on the speed of increasing our subscriber base.

opportunity of Thomson Intermedia's technology, data and systems in a dynamic
market which is increasingly demanding of data.'
