Private Equity and Investing

PRIVATE EQUITY AND INVESTING

Private Equity and Investing-focused Companies research all the time. But there are gaps in the way things are done.

Azure Knowledge is a trusted source of proprietary data – we provide fast, accurate high-quality data whether your project is a small/local/online consumer survey, or a large B2B study on the other side of the world. With offices on 4 continents we are able to confidently assist with online, telephonic and F2F projects globally. In 2018, Azure made small but significant inroads into the PE community, with several interesting and tough projects delivered. This included in-person intercepts in Asia, consumer online studies in North America and B2B phone surveys in regions like the Baltics.

Larger PE firms and investment companies and teams (think M&A advisory and in-house corporate development) have established research teams and institutionalized processes and established vendors, but smaller firms do not – and can benefit from working with Azure . Even highly-experienced research teams at the best Private Equity and Investment Firms know that it’s simply too costly, too time consuming, and too challenging to attempt accurate data collection—local or distant—employing in-house resources alone.

That’s where Azure can help !
