TESTIMONIALS

It was MAGIC! Motivating Your Audience to Your Goal Interactively with Content!
- Chris Lindsay, Training & Operations, Wizards of the Coast

When having to choose which conferences I'm going to attend each year, I end up selecting The Market Research Event because the breadth of content is like being able to attend several conferences at once."
Cindy Casper, Director, Greeting Card Consumer Insights, American Greetings

Excellent all around.
Sr. Manager, IT PMO, Lockhead Martin Aeronautics

I've attended The Market Research Event twice in the past 3 years and it's become the benchmark by which I measure all other conferences, in content and relevance.  After a few days exposure to the dynamic speakers, the major manufacturers sharing case studies and the opportunity to connect with peers at client companies, I come away from TME "fired up" with ideas, approaches and a list of action items I can put into practice immediately. Even as we all face cuts in travel and training budgets, this is the conference to keep on your list!
Lori Grupp, Director of Marketing Research, Hyatt Hotels and Resorts

It was real, hands-on..it will impact my life long-term!

Truly Inspiring
- Ed Reznu, Information & Communication Services, NYS Teachers

Exactly what I needed to know! A good mix of topics. I'm feeling jazzed about the information/learning I'm getting from these workshops. My team is planning to use what we've learned here to mature our methodology and improve our Business Analyst Training training program.
Sr. Business Analyst, D&B

The Market Research Event keeps getting better and better. The keynote speakers are always thought-provoking and timely and the high-quality breakout sessions let attendees learn from and interact with peers at leading client-side companies.

Great ideas and conversation exchanges with others in CS business
- Jenny Baethke, Customer Service, Baxter Healthcare

I’m very pleased to join with IIR to again bring a “School of Marketing Research” to the business community.  As a partner with AMA on a similar program for over 20 years, I witnessed firsthand the value basic research education offered by experienced practitioners can produce for individuals and their organizations seeking to fast-track their investment in research.

It was great to see how Disney exceeds customer experiences first hand. (after attending Disney Service Challenge in the park)
- Kelly Castell, SVP, Process Innovation & Technology, First Data

The interaction and sharing with peers is equally (if not more) valuable than the presentations. Don’t get me wrong-- the presentations are fantastic, but the networking is a collateral benefit.
