Eleven well-known consultants and advisors to the market research industry have come together to form gravitas – the world’s first ever global consulting group dedicated to the MR industry. The network spans three continents and can provide specialist advice, coaching and mentoring to senior management in all aspects of strategic planning and corporate governance. meaning ltd is one of the founding members, and will provide expert advice in IT, change management and human resources. Companies contacting any member of the gravitas network will have access to the considerable resources and talents of the entire network through a single point of contact.

Tim Macer, MD of meaning ltd said “Our work at meaning has long been global, from a geographical perspective, and has become increasingly strategic, as technology takes centre stage and we find we are more often working with senior management in the companies we help. With gravitas, we can now be global in the consulting expertise we can provide, as our other colleagues in the network complement our expertise. But importantly, I know they also share our philosophy with regard to integrity, independence and wanting our clients to achieve the very best.”

Bill Pegram, a member of gravitas and previously Corporate Development Director at Synovate and co-founder of Pegram Walters Ltd, commented: “It’s incredibly exciting to be launching this totally new concept alongside such experienced and noted executives and consultants as we have assembled here. These are all people who have already made a huge contribution to the Regionresearch industry on a worldwide basis. Now we have the chance to make an even greater contribution.”
