What Client’s Say

  • As in any marketplace, understanding our audience is critical to keeping our exhibitions at the forefront of the markets we serve. And the tactical and strategic insight that Fusion provides helps us to do just that. They give us an amazing amount of detailed customer insight, for both our visitors and exhibitors, which we then use to develop and enhance our product and service offering.

    Julie HigginsGroup Marketing Manager, William Reed Exhibitions

  • I have worked with a number of research firms in the past, but feel we have found an ideal, long-term partner in Fusion. Fusion took the time to really understand the nature of our market and industry segment, as well as the goals we had for the survey project, and suggested a number of improvements we might have otherwise overlooked. The reports and analysis Fusion provide are always excellent, enabling us to drill down and identify the most compelling story lines and improvements areas that we need to focus on. I have no hesitation in recommending Fusion.

    Raj ThakkarWorld Travel Market - Reed Exhibitions

  • Two of the great benefits of our partnership with the team at Fusion have been their experience in the events sector and their applied understanding of Fresh RM in the research they undertake for us. They deliver real and affordable insight that enables us to really appreciate how our marketplaces think and behave. I would recommend Fusion to any exhibition organiser looking for visitor, exhibitor or market research.
