The awards feature monthly on-line creative contests culminating in an annual overall awards presentation. McCandless - who conceived the awards working closely with Kantar creative director Aziz Cami - acts as a consultant to Kantar's 13 operating companies to promote the use of data visualisation in their outputs. Data visualisation is a technique that brings information to life through the creative application of graphics and offers a tremendous potential to the worlds of research, information and journalism through its ability to unlock trends and insights in a way that can be instantly seen, not just understood. McCandless said: "I'm excited to team up with a world-leader like Kantar. Both Kantar and I share a passion for data visualization as a new way to tell stories. We want to support, celebrate and reward those practising this new creative form all around the world. That's really the soul of the Information Is Beautiful Awards." Cami said: "At Kantar we aim to turn data into insights that inspire our clients to better and more creative outcomes that really make a positive difference to their business. Data visualisation is an important addition to our armoury in pursuing this goal. We're thrilled that David has chosen Kantar as his partner to launch these awards."]]>http://www.kantar.com/#/whats-new/latest/kantar-and-mccandless-launch-first-ever-data-visualisation-awardshttp://www.kantar.com/#/whats-new/latest/kantar-and-mccandless-launch-first-ever-data-visualisation-awardsThu, 08 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0000http://www.kantar.com/#/whats-new/latest/hofmeyr-joins-tns-in-global-thought-leadership-rolehttp://www.kantar.com/#/whats-new/latest/hofmeyr-joins-tns-in-global-thought-leadership-roleThu, 25 Aug 2011 00:00:00 +0000http://www.kantar.com/#/whats-new/latest/lightspeed-research-launches-new-panels-in-poland-and-greecehttp://www.kantar.com/#/whats-new/latest/lightspeed-research-launches-new-panels-in-poland-and-greeceTue, 23 Aug 2011 00:00:00 +0000Compete has announced that Scott Centurino has joined the company as chief operating officer.
