Description: IT Gartner October 16, 2025
Gartner, Inc. (NYSE: IT) is a global research and advisory firm founded in 1979 and headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut, serving clients across the U.S., Canada, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and other regions.
The company operates through three distinct segments:
- Research: Subscription-based delivery of on-demand research, data benchmarks, and direct access to subject-matter experts.
- Conferences: In-person and virtual events that enable executives and teams to learn, share best practices, and network.
- Consulting: Custom analysis and implementation support focused on IT cost optimization, digital transformation, and sourcing strategies.
Key performance indicators that investors watch include the Research subscription renewal rate (historically > 90 %), conference attendance growth (≈ 5 % YoY in 2023 despite a shift to hybrid formats), and consulting billings margin (averaging ≈ 38 % of revenue). Gartner’s revenue is also sensitive to macro-economic factors such as corporate IT spending cycles and the pace of cloud adoption, which have driven a 7 % YoY increase in digital-transformation-related consulting contracts in 2023.
