Winning and innovating strategies for commercial success

Welcome to the first MRS conference that is entirely devoted to exposing the mechanics of successful transformation in business and society. It is designed to help both agencies and clients learn how others have implemented, managed and sustained successful change.

It is an unmissable event for anyone who understands that the best insight is directed toward making a positive, quantifiable and lasting impact on business. This conference will show you how you can create your own successful stories of change.

It is the first MRS conference that offers a platform to research entrepreneurs, who have themselves created powerful change within their own businesses. Listen in as, alongside their senior clients, they lay bare the methodologies, strategies and challenges that underlie some of the most illuminating and effective engagements that created real value for customers.

Through eight case-studies and a keynote conversation, Driving Transformation Through Insight will help to change the way you think about insight’s role in creating the world anew.
