El Kaliouby added: “For nearly a decade, Graham has partnered with us to bring Affectiva into Kantar’s practice and grow its impact. We’re thrilled to welcome Graham to the team as a long-term advocate and a serial innovator who will pioneer an entirely new standard for understanding meaningful interactions between consumers and brands.”
