Rosslyn and Viewpoint to Cohabit

March 5 2010

In the UK, recently acquired sister companies Rosslyn Research and Viewpoint Field Services are moving to shared premises on London's Southbank next month.

Gale BlearsFormer parent firm IQ Holdings recently sold the firms to media and financial services group Rivington Street Holdings (RSH) in a transaction valued at £1.5m. At the time, RSH committed to investing in the two companies, in order to facilitate 'further strong growth'.

Following the move, studio and quant recruitment specialist Viewpoint will develop a central London viewing facility, while maintaining its existing viewing operations in Sunbury, where it runs three focus group studios.

Data collection and field agency Rosslyn Research will move from its current offices in Shoreditch to join Viewpoint on the Southbank, bringing its international CATI and online quant services under the same roof as Viewpoint's qual offering. The firms say that this will provide cross-selling opportunities to both companies.

'Customers have been indicating they would like us to open a central London studio venue for a number of years,' explained Viewpoint MD Gale Blears. 'The team is now thrilled to be able to offer clients this service alongside our current, suburban facility in Sunbury.'

According to Rosslyn's Consultancy Director Amélie Taralle, being under one roof will enable the firms to work together more effectively, 'without compromising the values of either proposition'.
