Spire Research and Consulting was established in 2000 to address a gap in the research and consulting industry in global emerging markets.
Spire is an independent firm which is majority owned by the Yamada Consulting Group, a publicly listed firm in Japan. Both companies are independent of the large, global market research agencies. That independence means that we do not push branded, cookie-cutter research solutions on our clients. Instead, we tailor each research program to deliver only what is needed for the decisions that really matter.
