Aims

The Awards provide a unique opportunity to bring to light projects which demonstrate excellence and effectiveness via:

• actionability of results
  
• the capacity to predict financial outcomes
  
• a strong agency / client partnership

The Research Effectiveness Awards are supported by AMSRS and AMSRO. This commitment by both peak industry bodies reflects their focus on promotion of the value of market and social research.Winners will be unveiled and honoured at an Awards Gala Dinner on the 20th May 2010 in Sydney. 

Eligibility and benefits

The awards are open to all market and social research organisations. We welcome entries from anyone, from one man consultancies to large agencies. Winning a Research Effectiveness Award is not only an acknowledgement of professional success; it is a demonstration of a long term commitment to better business outcomes. Few things can be better for employee morale, investors and, most of all, the bottom line.

Client-side research managers will gain an enhanced profile and some meaty performance measures for MR Managers, Marketers, and for the Board. Government agencies and NGOs have their own Award category, measuring effectiveness in terms of social return on investment.
