In Calabasas, CA, full-service sampling and research tech firm InnovateMR + Ivy Exec has promoted Chris Young to SVP, Global Head of Sales; Alex Baranpuria to SVP, Global Strategic Growth & Development, and Sam Lippin to VP, Market Insights & Business Development.

InnovateMR provides tech solutions for agile research, and operates panels of diverse business and consumer audiences. Its offer includes end-to-end survey programming, international sampling, qual and quant insights, and custom consulting. In January 2023 it acquired Ivy Exec, which offers access to a network of more than 2.5 million B2B professionals for qualitative research.

Young joined the firm in 2015, and has worked in a number of business development roles. In his new position he will oversee all aspects of sales strategy and execution. Innovate CEO Lisa Wilding-Brown comments: 'With Chris' business acumen, proven track record, and deep understanding of our company and industry, I have full confidence that under his leadership our sales division will continue to thrive and achieve new milestones. His expertise in the field and pioneering strategies position him as the perfect choice to steer our sales team amidst our ongoing growth and transformation'.

Baranpuria brings more than fifteen years of experience to his new role, and Lippin nearly seven years. The two joined with the acquisition of Ivy Exec last year, and the company says their promotions 'solidify InnovateMR + Ivy Exec as one truly unified company' and showcase its 'unwavering dedication to growth through strategic mergers and acquisitions'. Elena Bajic, President of Ivy Exec comments: We're thrilled to share the exciting news of Alex Baranpuria and Sam Lippin's promotions within InnovateMR + Ivy Exec... With Alex's wealth of experience and Sam's consultative prowess, they are well-positioned to drive our strategic initiatives forward and deliver exceptional value to our clients'.
