Delivering Impact

Povaddo has played critical roles in delivering impact for our clients on numerous consequential issues, including:

Being at the forefront of the global tobacco industry’s transformation from combustible cigarettes to reduced risk alternatives.

Enabling the pesticide industry to more effectively respond to societal concerns about these products.

Working with embattled companies to improve reputation and build trust among important stakeholder groups.

A Survey of Attitudes among Global Policy Professionals regarding Artificial Intelligence (AI)

New research conducted and funded by Povaddo reveals that the global policy community is cautiously optimistic when it comes to AI and its impact on the world; however, they also feel that more government regulation is needed.

While many surveys have been conducted among the general population and business leaders on the topic of AI, this is the first-ever survey among global public policy professionals.

Povaddo surveyed 300 public policy professionals around the world using the firm’s proprietary research panel of global opinion leaders.

This one-of-its-kind panel allows our clients to survey and interview public policy leaders and business elites to understand their opinions and solicit feedback.
