Savanta Expands Teams in New York and Toronto

Next15's data and insights group Savanta has hired former Hall & Partners exec Eric Koivisto as Vice President in its NY office, while Kelsie Schroeder joins him there as a Research Consultant. In the Toronto office, Gustavo Pageu joins as a Research Operations Manager.

Created in 2019, Savanta offers clients a full range of intelligence services, including bespoke research, data collection and analysis, and proprietary intelligence products. Koivisto (pictured) joins after nearly eight years as a Partner at brand consulting agency Hall & Partners, prior to which, he worked for firms including Ogilvy & Mather, Microsoft, and Kontent Films, and he launched online gaming platform TrenchFantasy.

Koivisto comments: 'I'm excited about the opportunity to join the Savanta team who are curious and creative in helping brands understand what they need to do to not only chart the confusing waters of today but also how to stand out and uniquely connect with consumers in ways that take advantage of today's marketing toolset.'

In addition, Schroeder joins in New York after recently graduating from Indiana University, and Pageu joins after stints at Nielsen and Toluna in both Brazil and Canada.
