The firm has also promoted Florian Kahlert (of KN Dimestore) and Wendy Wallner (CPG/Retail Research) to Senior Vice President roles.
In addition, KN has appointed Rapp from his former role as Director of Custom Research at Conde Nast Publications, where he oversaw the marketing and editorial research for titles such as Vogue and Vanity Fair.
Prior to this, he developed cross-media measurement methodologies at Marketing Evolution, and was a founding member of DoubleClick, where he built an online ad research department and developed online ad effectiveness and online consumer studies. He left in 2001 to create the research team at America Online.
'These promotions strengthen KN on many fronts; expanding the senior team, ensuring continued excellence in our client interactions, and preparing for future growth,' stated Kooyman.
