“We are thrilled to partner with Synergy to advance social listening for brands and agencies in The Philippines,” said Olivier Girard, Head of APAC at Digimind. “Synergy’s expansive network puts Digimind at a great advantage to solidify our position as the go-to partner for AI-driven social listening solutions.”

“The Philippines has one of the highest numbers of social media users in Southeast Asia, with a social media penetration rate of 67%. On average, Filipinos spend close to 4 hours daily on social media. Other than a way for brands to connect with their customers, social media has created a wealth of data for marketing and insights teams to tap into, especially in a time of accelerated flux brought about by Covid-19. The opportunities for social data in The Philippines are tremendous, and we’re excited to be able to bring that to more brands and agencies through our partnership with Synergy.” He added.

Germaine A. Reyes, CEO & President of Synergy, adds, “We are grateful to be one of the partners of Digimind, adding AI-driven social media listening to our arsenal of consumer insighting solutions – even before the social distancing period.  Social media listening tools is the second most-used platform for obtaining consumer data in 2020 especially in these days.  This has signalled to us that real-time data is no longer a nice to have, but A MUST for businesses to survive and thrive. Given the positive testimonials from established companies like Leo Burnett in The Philippines, we are confident with Digimind’s ability to “close the gap” in social media intelligence solutions, both on the technology and human fronts.”
