The Behavioural Architects merges with Chinese firm

UK/CHINA— The Behavioural Architects (TBA) has expanded into China through a merger with Shanghai-based Research Essentials.

Research Essentials founders Qing Wang and Sharon Zhou will continue to provide qualitative research services but will also add a range of new research and consultancy services based around behavioural economics thinking and frameworks, which is the area TBA specialises in.

TBA was set up last June by former Futures Company executives Crawford Hollingworth, Sian Davies and Sarah Davies. Oxford Analytica’s Elizabeth Barker joined the team in July.
