Market House International
Market House International (2003-2006), was a Public Relations (PR) consultancy created to run the Stockholm Network of neoliberal think tanks. The Stockholm Network had been operating since it was set up by Helen Disney in 1997 and was closely connected to Swedish think tank Timbro. Helen Disney set up Market House International in 2003 and the company operated until 2006 when it was renamed as the Stockholm Network Ltd[1][2].
On the incorporation of Market House on 5 November 2003, Helen Disney was appointed as its director and former Times journalist, and director of Populus Rick Nye was appointed as the company's secretary[3][4]. The company's original website published staff profiles of Disney alongside those of Nicole Gray Conchar and Sacha Kumaria[5].

Criticism
Paul Staines describes the relationship between Market House International and Stockholm Network in a 2005 article for The Times:
- The Stockholm Network, which presents itself as a pan-European think-tank co-ordinating body, turns out to be in fact the public face of Market House International, a PR consultancy that tells corporate clients that the network gives it "local capacity to deliver both local messages and locally tailored global messages in a wide range of countries"[6].
