The past two years has seen unprecedented change in the industry and in our day to day working lives. We at Concise have also been transforming rapidly over this time. We still provide unrivalled share auditing to the leading media owners, but have invested over the past few months in developing and launching our leading tech-led research and analytics capability.

During this time we have asked ourselves questions around how Concise can continue to deliver value over and above the competition. With that in mind Sue Gray, our Consulting Partner with unrivalled understanding of the market and first class network will be taking a far more involved role with me and our publicly-listed technology partner Bouvet ASA in bringing to market our insight and analytics offering. This is an exciting area of growth for Concise and we look forward to sharing further success stories over the weeks and months ahead.

With the three core areas of assurance, research and consultancy now well integrated and established, Graeme Symon will shortly be stepping back from his day-to-day role but remain on the Board as he takes on a new position outside the sector. We wish him further success with his new venture.

Very best wishes,

Kevin Waller

CEO and Founder
