  • Risk assessment and issues management
  • Stakeholder mapping
  • Brand surveys among employees and families
  • Pre-testing of communication strategy
  • Readership surveys
  • Management development surveys
  • Drug launch evaluation
  • Communications effectiveness audits and key performance indicators

Echo customizes research programs to tap the attitudes of a large array of stakeholders in this sector, including elected officials and government departments; healthcare providers and patient groups; scientists, universities and research centers; media, voluntary and non-government organizations; opinion formers, and, not least, the general public.
