Research,
Research, Research!
Day 11 of
GEC 1 Euromonitor is the destination of the day. Euromonitor is a privately
owned market research business. They primarily focus on strategic intelligence
on markets . So in basic terms they compose and collect information from around
any area of the world to sell to businesses. These businesses often use this
information to make decisions or if and where to expand their company and, in a
way, help their clients stay ahead of competitors by providing all this
information. Overall the company trip was quite informative, as it was
expected!( get it because they provide information). Definitely seems like a
great place to work if you like traveling and gathering loads of information.
After
the euromonitor excursion, me and my partner in crime decided to do a
little research around London ourselves. By that, we researched the food
and store around campus to see what the style, sales, and taste of things were
lol. Lots of souvenirs we purchased in the name of this research along with
delicious pizza eaten (Italian food is great here). Back to campus we
went to do research on locals (another interview) where we found a sweet
fashion accessories entrepreneur at the park. Which matched perfectly for
my buddy, Eboni, whose going into fashion marketing. The conversation flowed
easily and once again I was left amaze how people who live worlds apart came be
so similar. Anyway logging off until tomorrow to see what the great Bank of
England will teach me.
