NIQ Expands Google Relationship with Meridian Integration into NIQ Cadence\u2122<\/b><\/p>\n

Meridian, Google\u2019s open-source Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM), is now available within NIQ Cadence\u2122, accelerating the path from measurement to continuous marketing optimization in one connected workflow.\u00a0 <\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nNIQ (NYSE: NIQ), a leading consumer intelligence company, today announced the expansion of its relationship with Google through the integration of Meridian, Google’s open-source MMM framework, into NIQ Cadence\u2122, NIQ’s AI-native marketing effectiveness operating system. The strategic partnership gives marketers a single place to measure marketing performance and act on it, shortening the distance between insights and optimization.<\/p>\n

\nMarketing leaders are under growing pressure to prove the return on every media dollar, and traditional measurement has struggled to keep pace. In NIQ\u2019s latest CMO Report, 74% of CMOs said they were under more scrutiny to prove marketing ROI, while just 9% felt they had adequate access to real-time insights. NIQ Cadence\u2122 was built to help close the 65-point actionability gap between accountability and timeliness. Rather than treating measurement as a one-time event, the integration brings Meridian into NIQ Cadence\u2122, a unified platform which brings data, models, and scenario planning together so marketers can measure marketing performance and act on optimizations in real-time.<\/p>\n

\nIntegrating Meridian into that loop means the transparent, open-source modeling that organizations already trust now sits alongside the data that feeds it and the decisions that follow. NIQ\u2019s proprietary global data and a marketer\u2019s own inputs flow into the Meridian model, the model runs inside NIQ Cadence\u2122, and the results move straight into scenario planning, optimization, and ongoing performance monitoring.<\/p>\n

\n“Marketing leaders have told us they don’t need another standalone model. They need a faster path from insight to action,” said Jason Tate, General Manager, Marketing Effectiveness at NIQ. “By bringing Meridian into NIQ Cadence\u2122, we’re helping teams expedite data preparation, accelerate modeling cycles, and keep marketing measurement connected to the business decisions it should drive. All of which is dynamically updated through automated APIs, helping marketers get insights faster and more consistently.\u201d<\/p>\n
