Just back from ESOMAR’s superbly organised and networking-friendly Berlin Congress and the first order of the day is to congratulate the award winners, pretty much all of whom have featured on RT.

So, congrats to…

• Best case history: Mike Cooke and Phyllis Macfarlane, GfK NOP (review)
• Best methodological paper: Orlando Wood, BrainJuicer (review). Orlando is a rising star - incredible gravitas for one so young
• Best overall paper (Fernanda Monti award): Mark Earls, Herd Consulting. No surprise to us, we were fans of Mark’s herd work before it rose to its current level of popularity
• ESOMAR excellence award for standards of performance in market research (John Downham award): DVL Smith, DVL Smith Group. David’s known for having given back more than most to the industry

We shot a bit of video while there and will endeavour to get it up over the next few weeks. It includes conversations with some of the keynotes
