We can help you examine social media and how they are affecting the world
We have vast experience in a range of social media fields from political communications to online user behaviour. We know how to get the data you need, how to answer the questions you have, and therefore make the best impacts possible from social media research. The analysis of platforms such as Facebook and Twitter has never been so important, and we are here to help you understand the world of social media in an ethical and scientifically rigorous way.
