Leading expert in advanced causal data analysis,
15 years senior Scientist at MPI (Causality Group) and KIT
Team of 15 freelance consultants and analysts.
100% minimum 10 years industry experience, 65% with PhD.
We believe that it needs three things to develop and maintain powerful analytics-based marketing solutions:
- Experience: Our consultants and analysts have at least 10 years of relevant experience
- Excellence: Any supplier has some special expertise. Customers benefit if specialist suppliers team up in proven solution teams.
- Attitude: We see ourselves as “Marketing Engineers”. Scientists are looking for solutions that follow a true theory. Practitioners search for solutions that make sense. Engineers search for solutions that simply work and show real-life impacts.
