Infopro Technologies Inc has sold all three of its subsidiaries to separate firms – one of which is France Telecom subsidiary Questel: Infopro’s engineering database provider, Orbit Online Products, was netted by Questel, while the firm’s BRS Software Products, which produces document management software to create and manage large online databases, has gone to Dataware Technologies of Cambridge, Massachusetts; BRS Online, which offers searching facilities on a range of bibliographic and on-line databases, has been pocketed by CD Plus Technologies of New York City; Infopro was part of Macmillan, which decided to have a mass clear out when it bought itself out from Maxwell Communications Corp Plc; the Infopro holding company itself will be terminated after the sale goes through in a month and staff contracts are still in discussion.
