Qual Specialist Opens Cyprus Agency

UK researcher Matthew Lawrence has set up his own agency in Cyprus, offering all aspects of qual data collection and project management.

Before relocating to the Mediterranean, Lawrence gained 12 years' experience working in the UK market research industry in recruitment and qualitative departmental management roles. Most recently, he worked at data collection agency Field Facts, and before this at ORC International, Continental Research, The Independent Field Work Company, Field Control, Infocorp and TNS.

His new firm Cyprus Vision provides all aspects of qual fieldwork from questionnaire design, report writing and digital recording of interviews, through to transcripts once a project is completed. The firm will work in consumer, business and medical markets, and for clients in the US, Canada, Australia and Europe.

Lawrence said of his move: 'At Cyprus Vision, our philosophy is to provide clients with competitive rates and excellent recruits. I am developing the company on the solid principles of effective communication, first class project management and client satisfaction that will ensure return business.'

The new agency is based in Paphos, in the southwest of the island, and is online at www.cyprus-vision.com .
