• ICG Question Time and networking lunch

Don't miss this great networking event, and chance to hear from a cross section panel of senior marketing and research professionals. If outside London, why not combine with Christmas shopping and make it a day out? Invite others in your network - all guests welcome.

We are hosting a topical exchange about trends in marketing, research and business. It’s along the lines of the BBC Thursday night TV programme, with ICG Chairman Andrew Smith in the Dimbleby hot seat. We have a great panel to debate your questions and issues, confirmed as:

  • Dominic Proctor, CEO, Mindshare Worldwide
  • Alex Batchelor, COO, BrainJuicer UK; Chairman, The Marketing Society
  • Rosie Campbell, Founder, Campbell Keegan; Chair, AQR
  • Monique Hellel, Head of Personal Customer Research, HSBC
  • Sara Jones, Research Director, London 2012 Olympics
  • Danny Russell, Marketing Strategy Director, B Sky B; Chairman - AURA
  • Sally Ford-Hutchinson, The Thinking Shop and ex Global Planning Director

We have hired the 150 capacity Screen One at the ODEON cinema, Covent Garden, with ample foyer space for pre-event networking, drinks and buffet lunch. The cinema is ours until 3pm.

Tube: Covent Garden, Leicester Square or Tottenham Court Road all a short walk away.

Doors open at 12 noon. 12 Noon – 1.15pm: drinks, finger buffet and networking in the foyer with panellists and guests. 1.15pm – 2.30pm: The main event: Question time in Screen One. 2.30pm – 3pm: free for further drinks and chat.

We expect an audience of 100+. Spread the word please. All ICG members and guests are very welcome indeed.

The cost is held at an incredible value £10 per person, in cash, on the door. Please advise if you are intending to come (and numbers in your party) ASAP. There is no need for advanced payment BUT we do need an accurate assessment of numbers, for catering purposes. To attend simply email (with numbers confirmed in your party if 2+), with ‘ICG 16 November event’ in subject line, to admin@indepconsultants.co.uk

If unable to attend live, VoxPops are filming the event for a podcast to be made available soon after the event on the ICG website.

Finally, as on the BBC show, I NEED YOUR TOPICAL QUESTIONS NOW for the panel. Any subject related to current and future trends and issues in research, marketing and business would be great. Email them to me personally, noting whether you will be there on the day and wish to read your question out, or have me read it for you. Anything goes, but not too technical please! I will select the best cross section from those submitted by 15 November, to use on the day. The best question, as voted by the audience, wins a surprise award! EMAIL YOUR QUESTIONS NOW TO: the email address at the top of the page.

We look forward to seeing as many ICG members and guests as possible on 16th November!
