You want fast turnaround, high quality insights? Contact Synergy! Whilst I would not recommend always cutting the timelines on a project, whenever they have been 'challenging' Jon has managed to deliver for me. More than that I can rely on Synergy to be collaborative and draw out insights, whilst being able to talk to leadership teams and adjust deliverables accordingly. I know I do not have to worry about methodologies, compliance to regulations, robust analytics.

Working with the Synergy team on pre-launch products has been very insightful! They have a wealth of experience in many markets and bring an understanding which makes working up projects so much more productive!

I have had the pleasure of working with Synergy on several projects over the last 12 months in preparation for a new product launch. Their consultative approach led them to being regarded as a key partner to the product launch team, and very highly respected by all levels of seniority and disciplines within the organisation. Their understanding of our needs and the overarching brand strategy has meant they have delivered added value throughout a flexible and tailored market research programme; the outputs of which have been instrumental in developing the strategic direction for the brand, as well as promotional materials for field force, healthcare professional and payers.
