Research agency DirectResearch

The Amsterdam-based market research agency DirectResearch merged with its sister companies Markteffect on January 1, 2025, under the name Markteffect. Since 2019, the two companies have been working together more and more closely. In order to be and remain as relevant as possible to our clients, we have decided to face the future as a single brand. This allows us to combine the best of both worlds and remain a reliable partner in market research. Read all about it here.
