We are a non-profit organization for the research of consumer and market decisions.

Our Working Paper Series supports early sharing of new market research knowledge. Working papers reflect work-in-progress and are published to enable the rapid evolution of market research knowledge and stimulate the discussion among practitioners, market research institutes and academics.
