In April, MRS teamed up with Watermelon, to conduct research with over 100 business leaders to understand the effects of the pandemic on the research sector.

This highlighted how in the UK, research businesses have experienced significant declines in revenue due to the Covid-19 Lockdown, with almost seven in 10 (68%) leaders saying their revenue had declined significantly since the start of the outbreak.

In August, we ran this survey again with Watermelon to sense check the sentiment of leaders now and how this has changed in the last quarter. Tune in to this special Member Drop-In webinar on 21 September to hear the latest results and ask MRS your questions.

  • Research Results: Hear Sinead Jeffries from Watermelon Research walk through the key findings of the research – including changes in sentiment since April.
