Australia's peak industry body for data, insights and research organisations MEDIA RELEASE AMSRO ANNOUNCES NEW NAME - AUSTRALIAN DATA AND INSIGHTS ASSOCIATION (ADIA) - RECOGNISING SHIFTS IN THE MARKET AND SOCIAL RESEARCH INDUSTRY - The home of leading data, insights and research companies - The Association of Market and Social Research Organisations (AMSRO) today announced a new name, the Australian Data and Insights Association (ADIA), that recognises changes across the industry and the emergence of new tech-enabled research in the global economy. The name Australian Data and Insights Association (ADIA) was chosen following an extensive research and consultation process with members and key stakeholders. A Special Resolution member meeting held last week ratified the decision, paving the way for the new name and new fit-for-purpose rules of the association.
ADIA represents traditional research organisations and newcomers who generate insights from data analytics and a variety of other sources in the growing area of research technology, enabling research to flourish in all its forms and to protect and sustain the industry. ADIA has close to 100 of Australia’s leading data, insights and research companies as members, employing more than 5,000 people in an industry generating more than $1 billion of economic activity annually. The new brand supports the existing, more traditional industry in embracing and working with emerging players. This broader approach provides newcomers with a relevant industry association, a key competitive differentiation, offering services and industry representation while enabling existing industry leaders to extend the robust, well-established practices and self-regulated environment to a wider market. ADIA members will be required to continue to adhere to Australia’s only registered Industry Privacy Code as part of the ADIA Trust Mark compliance process, which includes data protection and ethics.
