SUMMARY:ICG Webinar (Pre-Recorded): TSAPI - Your Questions Needed!
DESCRIPTION:Calling all ICG members to send questions (however challenging) to Matt Gibbs directly\, or ICG Manager Lucie (if you prefer to be anonymous to Matt)\, in order to shape the content of this pre-recorded webinar. Final deadline for questions – Friday 4th Sept. Webinar will be available to view on Monday 14th Sept. \nThe ICG recently helped launch a new initiative to create an API standard for Transferring Survey data – TSAPI.  Since launch ICG members have asked several interesting questions and generally wanted more information about the initiative.  The launch video can be viewed here. \nThe TSAPI initiative is currently in its first consultation period\, and Matt Gibbs (ICG member and core TSAPI team) is very keen to include independents and micro businesses in that discussion.  Matt will answer any questions ICG members have about TSAPI in an upcoming webinar.  Webinar content will be defined by ICG member questions\, so please send any queries and ideas you have to Matt or Lucie (if you prefer to stay anonymous to Matt) by Friday 4th September.  No matter how general or specific\, Matt will consult with the TSAPI team and answer as best he can. \nA webinar for everyone – not just for quantitative researchers \nThis session is not just for quant techies\, but should be of interest to everyone.  It’s an opportunity for us all understand more about the non-profit initiative\, to share our ideas\, and discuss how it might influence the future of market researching practice.  As Matt says\, from coders to clients TSAPI needs your ideas and support.  Everybody’s welcome! \nThe TSAPI initiative was launched globally on the 5th of August\, via the Australian National MR Conference\, in the UK via the Association for Survey Computing (ASC)\, the Market Research Society (MRS)\, Independent Consultants Group (ICG)\, and Research Live.  Then on US time via Quirk’s Media and publicised by MRweb. \nAbout Matt Gibbs \n \nMatt is Managing Director and Founder of Bayes Price – offering data connection\, analysis\, visualisation and insight to the market research and business intelligence communities. \nHe is keen to promote innovation and collaboration throughout the industry\, not least by participating in\, and helping to organise national and international conferences.  He’s an ICG member\, part of the core TSAPI development team\, a full member of the Market Research Society\, an active member of The Australian Research Society\, and sits as Vice Chair on the committee for the Association for Survey Computing (ASC). \nMatt combines a Masters in Sociological Research Methods with over 15 years’ experience in professional Market Research.  He enjoys merging established theory with contemporary technique\, finding solutions which offer more for less\, and is very keen to add to the conversation at any industry event with a good bar.  Should that conversation move beyond data and into the realms of music and/or cricket\, more’s the pleasure. \n Presentation slides/webinar recording will be available here by Monday 14th Sept  \n
