We are specialists in market research for the technology sector
We are the go-to research house for the world’s most innovative and influential technology companies.

We are well known for our ability to interview hard to reach enterprise IT decision makers, executives, and specialists, but we can interview almost any other demographic.
Technology market research for content



Collaborating with technology vendors and their agencies to create powerful campaign content based on market research is what Vanson Bourne has become known for throughout the enterprise technology industry.
We work closely with our clients to create custom market research data that leads to compelling and long-lasting marketing content. We focus on understanding aims and objectives of the research and wider campaign, crafting a research project, structure, and survey that totally meets their needs. We carefully ensure that only the right people participate in the research, and then we work with our clients to tease out the best insights, narratives, findings, and stories from the data.
And the results speak for themselves.
Campaigns based on our research have generated countless clicks, views, leads, earned media and more for our clients. Our research features in publications as diverse as the Financial Times, Politico, The Register, TechCrunch, BBC Business News, the Telegraph, the Wall Street Journal, and the Guardian. And it’s not unusual to see influencers and journalists writing stories that use research we’ve performed for a client months or even years after a campaign has launched.
Content built on your research insights
Research data can be used to create a wide variety of marketing content, each tailored to a specific audience or goal.
From animated videos to infographics, opinion-focused blogs reflecting on the results to simple summaries of the findings, participation in webinars to presenting in front of thousands of event attendees, we are able to produce compelling content on your behalf.
