Tell us about your background, and how you came to found your company?
Mritunjay Kumar is the co-founder and CEO of a digital marketing research start-up ‘InsightzClub’, one of Asia’s fastest growing start-ups based out at SIngapore. Before setting it up in 2017, he held leadership roles at many leading international consumer insights agencies like Nielsen, Kantar, Millward Brown and TNS for 16 years. Managing large multi-cultural teams
The consumer insights industry has not changed in decades and has been using traditional methodologies in collecting insigts. Due to manual processes and high dependence on human beings, the process is very slow. Users may need to wait weeks and months to access these insights. So, data isn’t being used most of the time. We have observed that 70% marketing decisions aren’t supported by any data and marketing spending isn’t as effective as it should be and hence, InsightzClub was founded
What is most important to you and your organization – mission, vision, or core values? Why?
I am a team player, believing strongly in honesty and transparency. Along with practising these habits, he encourages the same in the workplace as well. “Being honest and transparent are very critical to building trust.
