Aditi will be responsible for GWI's growth strategy throughout the region, including hiring new talent and building regional presence

GWI aims to disrupt traditional market research throughout APAC

Singapore, Feb 28, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Following its successful US$180 million in Series B funding in February 2022, valuing the company at US$850M, GWI, the leading audience insights company, is well on its way to ambitious growth plans in the APAC region, spearheaded by the hiring of Aditi Kohli as APAC Senior Vice President. Aditi will be based in Singapore.

Aditi will drive the company's growth, working with enterprise partners to help them gain a deeper understanding of local consumers. The investments are being utilized to further advance GWI's software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, as well as hiring new talent to support global expansion.

GWI has already seen strong growth in APAC, with over 20% of its clients based in the region. As the company continues to expand, it will offer much-needed alternatives to traditional market research, which is often not fit-for-purpose, too slow, expensive, and difficult to scale. Through GWI's intuitive and easy-to-use platform, as well as its extensive data collection in APAC, organisations can access an instantaneous view of harmonised data-sets representing 2.7 billion digital consumers across 48 geographies, including 14 markets in APAC, gaining faster and deeper insights to make data-backed decisions.

Many of the world's most influential brands, media organisations and agencies already leverage GWI to deliver global insights at scale. With Asia home to 60% of the world's population, and over 2,300 languages, there is a clear need for brands and businesses to fully understand the demands of each individual segment and have clear, unique and localised insights that allow them to make real business decisions.

"We are deeply committed to Asia-Pacific," said GWI CEO and Founder Tom Smith, "The size and breadth of the region means it can be hard for companies to navigate and be able to make proper data-driven decisions. GWI is able to provide them with deep insights and allow them to create the right strategy. When we launched our new office in Singapore we knew that we would need to find the right person to lead this exciting growth opportunity and Aditi is the perfect person for this. Her breadth of experience will be instrumental in growing our presence, talent and customer base. We're very excited for the future of GWI in APAC."

Aditi has a proven track record in scaling businesses from scratch. She joins GWI after two decades of experience working in APAC leadership roles with Foursquare, Near, The Walt Disney Company and MTV Asia.

"I am honoured to join GWI as we continue to revolutionise insights on digital consumers worldwide through technology," Aditi said. "We're seeking to bolster the APAC team, and looking to hire talented professionals (commercial sales and customer success) with a passion for market intelligence and innovation who can support the rapid expansion of our business."

GWI has emerged strongly from the COVID-19 global pandemic, promoting a positive hybrid working culture and placing great emphasis on training and developing its staff. With five offices globally, GWI plans to strengthen its hiring to over 600 employees by 2023. See here for the latest open roles.

Trader Nicholas Merten called the metaverse sector the most promising direction of the crypto market in 2022. According to the analyst, altcoins from this sector have been the leaders in terms of returns for the past few months. Metaverse tokens will be able to show similar dynamics in the next year, Merten believes. The concept of metaverse has been around for a long time, but before its popularity was hindered by two factors: a weak technological base and distrust of the online environment. From a “trend” metaverse started to turn into “real life” and the needs of users began to grow with an incredible speed. The familiar 2D pictures and lack of user uniqueness became more and more of a problem. The solution to improve metaverse came from the MetaBody, forming a new market of realistic and creative avatars behind it, and some companies are already making progress in mastering it. The MetaBody is a project that provides ultra-realistic 3D avatars for use in the meta-universe and beyond. The MetaBody was established to develop high-end custom avatars, communities and tools to accompany holders in their metaverse experience. “The development of the metaverse directly depends on the quality and realism of the avatar. Unique metaverse characters, moreover with the possibility to create a custom image, is a new stage of metaverse development which really feels like real life”, – comments MetaBody Studios. The first thing one wants to see in a metaverse is a new level of quality and the universe as close to real-life as possible. The main use of the MetaBody in the metaverse. Avatars can be integrated into existing and emerging virtual worlds. However, this is not the only use, in the future, the MetaBody can be used to perform at virtual events. Avatars can hold a VR concert on their own or participate in the show of a new digital clothing collection, It is also worth noting being rendered in any surroundings and having their own social media: examples of practical use can be found on the Instagram page of user Anelie Godar. In the future, the MetaBody Studio plans to add more file formats to ensure seamless integration into emerging metaverse and other virtual worlds. A limited set of avatars will be custom and made according to client’s wishes. The MetaBody allows you to be anything you want. The MetaBody is not a trend that should take root in the realm of the metaverse. It is a step toward perfect quality unique avatars for metaverse users. The MetaBody is quickly becoming a cornerstone of Web-3.0 development and integration into future business processes, it is clear that related markets serving such traction will flourish. The MetaBody project intends to offer its users some of the most versatile and exclusive avatar collections on the market, highlighting the uniqueness and individuality of its owners.
