Client Roundtable
What is the client roundtable?
In the summer of 2005 ESOMAR did a qualitative study which looked at the needs and requirements for skills and competences within client companies. One of the specific findings from this study was the need for client company researchers to have a closed forum where they could talk honestly with each other, exchange best practice and find ways to approach challenges that are specific to their environment. This was the birth of the client forum.
At ESOMAR events client side researchers are invited to either a working lunch or a closed session which is dedicated specifically to them
Who may attend?
The forum is by invitation only. Only client side research and marketing professionals are invited.
