We're looking for eight organisations that believe customer understanding should sit at the heart of decision-making.

Most organisations make decisions every day about people they almost never meet.

We're building a future where hearing directly from customers, audiences and citizens is not exceptional. It's expected.

Our Founder Partners aren't simply clients. They're helping us to redefine how organisations understand the people they serve.

Founder Partners receive:

1. Lifetime Founder Partner status

2. Direct input into the future development of Meet the People

3. Membership of the Meet the People Partner Network

4. Priority access to new programmes, formats and initiatives

5. Founder pricing protection for three years

6. Recognition as one of the organisations helping redefine customer understanding

Limited to the first 8 Proximist organisations

THE ORGANISATIONS THAT STAY CLOSE TO PEOPLE MAKE BETTER DECISIONS.

Many organisations drift away from the people they serve.

The best organisations don't leave customer understanding to chance. They make a conscious effort to stay connected to the people they serve. Meet the People helps them do exactly that.

Whether you're making a strategic decision, launching something new or looking for a deeper understanding of the people you serve, we'd love to hear what you're working on.
