Case
Brabant is bursting with marketing talent, none of it limited to iO's own Brabant campuses in Eindhoven and Den Bosch but all across the province. For this reason, this election puts the limelight on a few exceptional marketing experts once every year. Later on, a professional jury of established marketers and experts has final pick of Brabant’s leading marketers of 2023.
-
Companies could nominate Brabantian marketers for this unique award. Their offices did not have to be based in Brabant to be eligible to submit a nomination, only the nominated marketer was required to have Brabantian roots - with or without the accent.
What about us? At iO, we love the idea of supporting professionals with a love for their (marketing) craft, to strengthen their activities within their respective organisations and to celebrate how Brabantian marketers make an impact with their work, for end users and even society as a whole. Additionally, we like to make our knowledge available to our fellow marketers and the Beste Brabantse Marketeer community.
The road towards Brabant’s Beste Marketeer
20 February: announcement of the nominees
3 March: deadline for the public vote

DUO’s tick box: how the government uses behavioural principles
The government uses insights from behavioural science to guide its communication with citizens. This sometimes involves trial and error. DUO's 'tick box' is a well-known example. But first, let’s start with a bit of theory: the 'paradox of choice' briefly implies that we like choice, but don't like to choose.

Sometimes it even leads to us making no choice at all. Anyone who has ever stood in front of the dessert shelf in a French Hypermarché can relate to this. There is even a scientific term for this phenomenon: choice paralysis.Lire la suiteBlog
