Who We Are

We have a mission

We believe helping people in developing countries be heard is key to their joining the world market, bettering their lives, and resolving conflicts troubling them.

Enter emerging markets confidently

We’ve worked on more than 350 surveys in over 45 countries, from fast-growing China and Chile, to crisis countries like Iraq and Afghanistan, and frontier markets in Africa and Asia.
