Who We Are
Award-Winning Market Research
We are a team of scientists and experts in market research. We are also an award-winning market research company, who work with top global brands to provide reliable, scientifically accurate, and meaningful insights.
Our staff have over 50 years’ combined experience in psychology and neuroscience. So, you can trust us with your market research needs. We offer academically validated solutions for predicting consumer behaviour. This we do by providing an implicit method that helps us understand subconscious drivers and motivations. It is important to realise that Split Second has developed its own research platforms to speed up project development and delivery. This means we do not rely on third party technology. More importantly, our platforms are based on implicit response testing and so are based on gut feelings that consumers find difficult to articulate. Because of this we can have a more accurate understanding of human decisions and behaviour.
