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.

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.

Ilka Kuhagen was our lead bilingual consultant of the Dermatology Quality of Life Measurement Design Team at Pfizer Inc. Over the course of a year-long multi-lingual measurement design project, she consistently met project timelines and exceeded all expectations for project deliverables. Her expertise with Internet-based focus group methodologies was essential for the success of our project, and her professional dedication was amply demonstrated, culminating in a journal article we co-…

With Ilka Kuhagen’s professionalism, experience and preparation, the research results could be achieved very smoothly. She has the ability to moderate a group so there are dynamic discussions with each member given a chance to voice his/her opinion

As a fellow moderator, I really enjoyed seeing such a pro in action!

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.

Ilka proved to be a wonderful full-service resource to support international market research needs.

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…

Ilka was amazingly accommodating and hospitable. We had many unique requests and she took great care of us. While performing our Usability Research, she did a great job of getting to the information we needed, and her qualitative insights helped us immensely. I would love to have the opportunity to work with her again.

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.
