We had a very efficient and pleasant collaboration with IKM. Thanks to Ilka’s professionalism, dedication and finesse, a French-German brand identity research could be very successfully and beautifully achieved.

During my tenure as a marketing research professional at IBRC and the High View Consulting Group, Ilka has provided very effective qualitative research services in the various European countries. These services have included very specific recruitment efforts, custom tailored facility preparations, translations and exceptional moderating. I am very satisfied with the partnership that we have developed during the past eight years and I expect to continue this partnership well into the fu…

Ilka recently conducted a patient research project based on patient mini-groups for my company. I appreciated her responsiveness and professionalism on this project throughout the research. The moderating was excellent, and Ilka’s skills and flexibility enabled us to gain in-depth insights.

Ilka did a fantastic job with our focus groups around employee recognition in Frankfurt and Munich. Employee recognition is an usual topic to conduct focus groups on, but Ilka was able to pick up the topic very quickly and identify the areas to ask follow-up questions around. She was confident and experienced and clearly knew what she was doing. She was able to get us detailed information without us having to ask additional questions, and she was able to earn the attendees’ trust. Ilka…

I had the distinct pleasure of working with Ilka Kuhagen at the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)on a special competitive intelligence / market research project. Ilka did a great job of providing an insightful and concise summary of her findings that helped the client make educated decisions about their overall business and the direction to take it. She was a terrific person to have on our team.

IKM is our go-to research company in Germany. Ilka is a supurb moderator with stellar attention to detail. She provides great insights and a witty sense of humor!

We are looking at the bulletins and are fascinated. The results nicely fit into the observations of the focus groups and our meetings – while giving an even more differentiated perspective on our customers’ opinions (everyone ‘gets a say’ and can phrase considerate responses). As you notice: I have become a fan of this method straight away.

Organised, efficient and professional! We have a great insight into the satisfaction of our customers. Ilka and her team were invaluable to our project.

Ilka proved to be a wonderful full-service resource to support international market research needs. She produced on-target recruitment and had top-notch moderating skills getting to the heart of the consumer feedback. She exceeded our expectations with her hard working, smart and effective moderating of the age 18 – 24 year old market for the client, K-Swiss. She employed flawless simultaneous translators, who effectively kept pace from German to English. Ilka is a great partner in h…

Thank you very much for the eciting focus groups in Frankfurt am Main. As an engineering company it is extremely important to us to collaborate with an institute such as IKM, which can grasp the complexity of the products in our market and competently leads the discussions. I felt extremely well looked after during our first project together.
