Supporting ongoing development, Ipsos NA has made the largest financial investment in MMA since its acquisition of the company. The investment will focus on strengthening the collaborative data hub, faster data ingestion, enhanced real-time profiling and data quality management, and an enriched data cataloging with AI assisted taxonomy classification. It will facilitate heightened GenAI/NexGen insights mining, more detailed campaign planning and near real time performance tracking and recalibration, providing better visibility and actionability for cross-functional teams. Powerful augmentations to downstream integrations and business planning and execution feedback loops connected to partner platforms will facilitate users to more easily and quickly plan, track, measure and adjust their marketing and financial plans on a daily and weekly basis.

“Unified measurement is core to our success in the healthcare industry where data and analytics are increasingly more granular but remain disconnected and, in some areas, unstable across commercial drivers,” said Arvind Balasundaram, Executive Director, Commercial Insights & Analytics at Regeneron. “By connecting diverse data and analytics to provide a common foundation for insights, we are empowering cross-functional teams to optimize commercial investments in a synergistic manner, predict future outcomes and continuously track, validate and recalibrate plans using faster, more accurate and more holistic analytic results reflecting the latest consumer, market and business dynamics,” said Mr. Balasundaram.
