History
Formation and early years
R3 was founded in 2002 in Singapore by Goh Shu Fen and Greg Paull, and initially offered agency review, remuneration and relationship consulting services to a core of blue chip clients including Coca-Cola and Samsung.
By 2005, growth in the volume of R3's business in China made it necessary to establish a WFOE (Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise) in Beijing and Shanghai, headed by Greg Paull. The consultancy moved quickly to expand and consolidate its research capabilities in China with local companies to develop its understanding of the market and its consumers. In this way, R3 was able to secure business from official 2008 Beijing Olympic Sponsors to help prepare and monitor the effectiveness of their marketing campaigns.
