Client's need
An international research agency commissioned PMR to recruit gastroenterologists and patients in the Czech Republic for online focus groups (FGI on-line). The aim was to discover the group’s opinions on a new product used in gastroenterology, and to determine an optimal positioning strategy. An important element of the study was to identify the most efficient ways of communication with the target group.

Our experience in international recruitment allowed us to access 12 gastroenterologists and 8 patients for an online focus group interviews in the Czech Republic. Our long-time partnership with partners from Central-Eastern Europe made it possible for us to efficiently reach the target group. That allowed us to complete the project much faster. Group interviews, conducted via an online platform, enabled a mutual exchange of opinions and ideas, and a creative stimulation.
