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.

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.

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.

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…

I have had the pleasure of working with Ilka and IKM on numerous occasions over the past 10 years. She has provided us with a true partnership for all our international studies. She has done top tier localizing of all our our studies to work in the German, French and UK markets to gain truly best in class research results. Ilka is an innovator when it comes to qualitative methods and I cannot think of someone I trust more to work with in the industry.

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 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.

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.

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-…

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!
