Conflicts of interest[edit]
Frost & Sullivan participates in an equity research service scheme. The scheme provides equity research for a company who funds the research. The researched company is permitted to correct the report before the report is published.[1] Frost & Sullivan published a paper about the benefits of the scheme in the European Scientific Journal,[2] a predatory journal.[3] Researchers and asset managers see an inherent conflict of interest in research sponsored by the company being researched,[4] particularly with regard to the TASE Frost & Sullivan research scheme.[5][6]
Frost & Sullivan issues industry awards based on research using a proprietary methodology, which is sometimes based on a single article produced by the receiver of the award. Organizations which receive a Frost & Sullivan award must pay a fee to communicate the outcome to the public.[7][8][9][10] This conflict of interest is similar to that of a vanity award.

I can confirm that, at least in my own case, the research consisted of public domain material obtained from a single article written by ourselves.

The disillusionment culminated in the actual awards banquet held in honour of the recipients. Still being under the impression that the actual award is handed out even if the 'copyright' has not been paid for, I attended this event. As it turns out, only 'paid' awards are handed out (or, as Frost & Sullivan staff members prefer to call them, "licensed" awards).

We clearly regard the fact that the publication of obtaining a prize is associated with costs for the prize-winner as ethically very questionable
