About IBISWorld

IBISWorld publishes industry research covering the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Europe and other regions. Its analysts prepare reports that forecast where an industry is heading and show the data behind those forecasts in charts and tables. Clients can read the reports on the company's research platform or take the underlying data into their own systems.

Industry reports by country and sector

The report collections are organised by country, and each one covers an industry in depth. Subjects range from hotels and resorts, travel agency services and commercial aircraft manufacturing to human resources and recruitment services, accommodation and food services, and healthcare and social assistance. Reports set out the size and structure of an industry, the main challenges facing its firms, and the forecasts the analysts produce for its growth.

Risk ratings and state profiles

Industry risk rating reports assess the risk attached to each sector. Regional reports cover the states and provinces of the United States and Canada, with economic profiles that summarise each area's main industries and how they are changing.

Australian and New Zealand coverage

For Australia, IBISWorld publishes small business industry reports and profiles of enterprises in Australia and New Zealand. These sit alongside its coverage of the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, so that a researcher comparing markets can work from one source across regions.

Data, platform and integrations

Beyond the reports, the company offers an API that delivers its industry data into a client's own dashboards and custom AI tools. The data can also be plugged into third-party platforms, so the same industry context is available inside a client's usual workflow. The research platform holds a database and a set of interactive tools, with presentation-ready visualisations and an AI economist that gives quick answers to questions about an industry.

How clients are supported

IBISWorld describes its data as structured and human-verified, and it says its research is meant to help clients evaluate markets, benchmark performance and make decisions. Each client has a dedicated relationship manager who helps match the research to the business challenge at hand. Analysts unpack hundreds of data points to show what the figures mean for a particular business, and the company adds commentary from an expert analyst's perspective on what is driving industry trends.
