EMI Named to Inc. 5000
Fellow Research Professionals,
2010 had its share of challenges, however with challenge comes opportunity. EMI, as well as several of our clients, experienced a record year in spite of the market conditions.
In 2010, Inc. Magazine named EMI to its Inc. 5000 list of the fastest growing, private companies in America. For more than 30 years, Inc.’s ranking has served as evidence of the significant accomplishments for enterprises such as EMI. This prestigious list is a testament to the creativity, resilience and tenacity of America’s top entrepreneurs.
Below is the list of marketing research firms that were honored by Inc. and how they ranked within the MR space.
