The team 

Within TRUE Global Intelligence (TGI), we are passionate about using research, data and information to uncover insights that are critical to understanding people, sectors, the media, businesses and markets. Our clients not only look to us to help provide them with business-critical answers for today, but to use this knowledge to innovate and plan for the future.

We’re a friendly, hard-working and curious team of researchers and analysts from a wide range of backgrounds. We conceive and deliver both research, measurement and evaluation strategies for clients and teams across the agency.

Our mission is to put intelligence at the heart of all that the agency delivers. We work across the agency’s entire client portfolio, providing research, analytics and intelligence services focused on corporate reputation, brand marketing, patient awareness, stakeholder engagement, tech innovation, B2B sales and product launches.

We provide research counsel daily, delivering on a wide range of research consultative services, including, but not limited to:

• Providing new and existing clients with research, intelligence and analytics that helps them plan cut-through campaigns by exploring and understanding their target audience(s) and stakeholders
• Delivering in-depth analysis of coverage, social conversation and other digital signals to understand the topics and issues that are pertinent to our clients and the campaigns we execute on their behalf
• Using primary research to develop content and thought leadership collateral for our clients to support their business and broader communication efforts
• Developing and implementing measurement and evaluation strategies that allow for programmatic tracking and reporting of campaigns and to demonstrate how PR and communication impact our client’s business
