Providing the outsider the consultancy and information he/she needs, accurately and rapidly, is our business - this is where we come. Our specialty is conducting a multitude of in-depth tasks in:
· Market Research, Reports & Services
· Business Consulting
· Engineering & Technology Consulting
· Company Intelligence
· News Services & Monitoring
· Scientific & Technical Information
· Foresight
Each 2-3 years we launch some new service or product category; so in 2005 we began to provide engineering consulting services in the industries such as mining, mineral processing, automotive, etc.; in 2007 we began to develop computerized databases for our clients – with geological data, company information, etc.
Our regional expertise covers 50 countries in 4 continents:
· Russia
· Eastern Europe: Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, and Ukraine
· Central Europe: Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia
· Southeastern Europe: Albania, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Republic of Macedonia, Romania, Montenegro, Serbia, and Turkey
· Western Europe: Spain, UK
· Western Asia: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Israel, Jordan, Syria, Turkey, and UAE
· Central Asia: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan
· Latin America: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Cuba, Nicaragua, Peru, and Venezuela
· Africa: Algeria, Angola, Egypt, Morocco, Mozambique, and SAR
We constantly expand the geography of our activity – so in 2008 we added few Balkan counties to our regional coverage - and in 2009 we added Western Europe (UK, Spain), Western Asian countries (Israel, Jordan, etc.), Africa and Latin America.
Our multinational team of 82 full-time employees as well as over 240 freelancers successfully work in 30 offices worldwide covering 50 countries in 4 continents.
We have 5 ScD and 14 PhD in our staff – all of them are leaders in the industry Expert Teams. All employees have high education; from them 2/3 have two and more degrees.
The average work experience of our experts and consultants counts for 17 years – we do not hire people directly after university and prefer to work with those having practical experience in manufacture or science; our experts are not those “consultants” who know mining or chemical processing only by textbooks – but they are people knowing well the industries and markets we are working in.
Working with foreign clients since 2000 our experts and consultants have excellent understanding of what kind of information is required and how it’s better to present it – but at the same time our people have deep skills in collecting the required data in the target markets as well as wide knowledge in how to make deals there. This allows us to successfully compete with local consultants (who have information but have no skills in its “transferring” to foreign end-users) and with most of foreign consulting firms working in the target markets (they know well what information is required with their clients – but ineffectively try to collect data in Russia and other markets with methods applicable only in Western Europe or the US).
Since 1999 Ignatov & Company Group manages a network of more than 240 freelancers in 50 countries worldwide. These freelance experts, consultants and analysts actively participate in most of our research and consulting projects – expending our full-time staff’s expertise and abilities, and bringing deep knowledge in many specific niches.
We started to implement KPI approach for measuring our service quality in Russian offices in 2006; since 2008 we use the same approach in few other locations, including Turkey, Poland, Romania, Hungary, and Czech Republic.
Currently Ignatov & Company Group provides market research, business consulting, company intelligence, foresight and similar services to the following:
