Mr Raj Sharma, the official MRSI spokesperson commented,
"Tech Startups have been a global flavour for the past few years and even so in India. The market research industry is also getting impacted by the same and is looking to plug this into their offerings. MRSI realizes this and therefore has created this platform to cause synergies by bringing together the tech companies, the Market Research Providers and the Market Research buyers who cut across several industries ranging from FMCG to auto to pharma to agriculture to consumer durables, etc."
