“At this pivotal moment in our industry, Dynata stands proudly at the forefront of the first-party data ecosystem. Mark’s market research experience, abilities to lead and drive growth align perfectly with our strategic goals,” said Chris Watson, Dynata’s International Managing Director. 

“Mark will have a pivotal role in expanding our reach, elevating our market position and driving continued success across the Asia Pacific region. We have complete confidence in Mark's ability to deliver outstanding results for our clients.”

"I’m thrilled to join Dynata and lead our talented APAC team during this exciting phase of growth,” Lepine said. “Our unmatched capabilities and advanced solutions are truly differentiated assets, presenting us with endless opportunities to drive innovation, unlock transformative insights and deliver unparalleled value to clients across the vibrant and diverse APAC market.”
