I am proud of the culture that we have developed - and the trust placed in our staff to really understand and interpret innovative solutions to the needs of research buyers. I believe through new survey and video technology, thoughtfully designed and developed alongside supporting services, we have been able to add real value to the industry. It’s great to see the results of these efforts reflected within our GRIT 50 debut.”
