Information Conversation Opportunity

Agenda

Introducing InnovationMatters Why we exist?

To meet the precision of growth with independent, easy to understand and credible data

More reasons why we exist ….

For the mediaBeyond hunting and gathering, processing information is important. We process at two levels: (1) analysis to bring structure out of the never-ending flow of data and (2) presentation to get what’s important and relevant into the consumer’s head.

Data is an opportunity. We make sense of abstracts and what is not often noted and use data to transform something abstract into something everyone can understand and relate to.

Applying metrics to current realities Governments keep coming up with new metrics showing how well they

perform. E.g. the budget

We are what we do

• At InnovationMatters, we know that people who desire growth understand the need for data precision to inform decisions in their lives, businesses and country .

• Everyday, InnovationMatters goes beyond data collection and analysis to translating knowledge into concrete, workable recommendations that add value to planning, implementation and performance for our clients.

Our work since 2012….

Our primary objective: Project Management Primary project: Research
