Institute of Industry Analyst Relations (IIAR)The IIAR is a not-for-profit organisation established to raise awareness of analyst relations and the value of industry analysts, promote best practice amongst analyst relations professionals, enhance communication between analyst firms and vendors, and offer opportunities for AR practitioners to network with their industry peers.
Join us on the 22nd April for an IIAR> Webinar ith Jan Erik Aase / Partner, Principal Analyst and Global Head / ISG Research (@janerikaase, LinkedIn), for an overview of the ISG Provider Lens product, methodology and discuss upcoming plans for 2021.
As a follow up to the IIAR> Awards 2020, we’ll be doing a deep dive with some of the top analysts in the industry to understand the most important qualities that analyst relations professionals should focus on and more importantly the pet peeves that AR pros MUST avoid.
Industry analyst is a tough act to master: just like a one-man-band need to combine multiple instruments, analysts usually have many talents such as writing, public speaking, educating –and ideally analysing. Do they now need to be their own publicists as well?
The pandemic has brought in a dramatic uptick in social media usage, accelerating the move to digital for many interactions. Its convenience and immediacy make it a force that’s there to stay when the new normal finally settles. So, if you have lost the password of the Twitter account you had set-up back in 2007 to kick the tyres and haven’t got a plan to engage on LinkedIn, now is the right time to jump in.
Please join us on Tuesday, July 2, 2019 at 1500 GMT / 1600 CEST/ 1000 EDT / 0700 PDT for a discussion with Simon Robinson / Senior Vice President, Research at 451 Research. 451 Research is a leading information technology research and advisory company best known for its coverage of digital infrastructure, technology innovation, and market disruption.
In this webinar we’ll discuss 451 Research’s influence and impact, differentiation and competitive advantage, as well as the format and the future of their research. We’ll also discuss how best to engage with the analysts at 451 Research and how AR professionals and vendors can leverage their research. Continue Reading →
Hot on the heels of yesterday’s IIAR Webinar with CXP Group (they’ve dropped “le” to my great chagrin), here’s a quick interview summing-up their coverage areas and why analyst relations (AR) professionals should give them a call. With Yannick Carriou (LinkedIn, @YCarriou), Chairman and CEO and Jean-Christophe Bodhuin (LinkedIn, @JCBodhuin), SVP & UK Managing Director, UK Operations from of CXP Group, interviewed by Ludovic Leforestier(@lludovic, LinkedIn), from the IIAR Board.
Le CXP is one of the oldest IT analysis firms around. It was created in 1973, six years before Gartner, under the auspices of the French Ministry of Industry by some of the largest French companies at the time: Air France, Anotec, Bred, BSN (now Danone), EDF, RATP and the Société Générale. Its remit was to provide expertise on packaged software -hence the name in French, the deliciously quaint Centre d’Expertise des Progiciels. It’s been doing just this plus some consulting for IT users, gently and in French (Americans would call this in “local language”) until it bought PAC, a rival but vendor-focussed French firm, in 2014. At last I should say, and after PAC’s founder, Pierre Audoin, passed away.
As 2017 is shaping up to be a Tectonic Year when it comes to Analyst Relations the IIAR will be holding a London Forum on April 27th and on the evergreen topic of AR Best Practice, IIAR members are invited to share and debate best practice relating to Analyst Relations, Ludovic Leforestier (LinkedIn, @lludovic), will moderate the session. This will be followed by a NelsonHall Session on Getting the Message Out in a Post-Truth World, presented by Rachael Stormonth (LinkedIn, @rstormonth), Guy Saunders (LinkedIn, @GuySaunders1), Paul Connolly (LinkedIn, @Paul_NH), John Willmott (LinkedIn, @John_NH) Continue Reading →
