Among the latest of new offerings is Marketplace, the firm’s market research platform that allows clients to rapidly turn insights into action, fuelling what the consultancy bills as “marketing agility that will redefine the way people think of research.”
At the helm since 1 July, Bedeir now leads the Insights portfolio and team, a capacity she holds alongside her existing role of Chief Client Officer for Kantar in North Africa.
“In Nermeen I know we have a leader who will provide our clients and employees with a partner who not only truly understands the important role consumer insight plays in building strong brands but also someone who is able to work with brands to help develop appropriate strategies to leverage those insights. I look forward to working with Nermeen and her team to deliver impact for our clients’ businesses and brands,” said Ghate.
