Human8 (previously known as InSites Consulting) the new human-driven consultancy, today announced a strategic community partnership with Japan-based SevenSeas Marketing Research, the local reference for customer-centric intelligence. The partnership supports Human8’s global ambitions, with a clear focus on helping SevenSeas to successfully bring communities to its clients in Japan.
Alongside its ambitious buy-and-build journey of the past five years, Human8 has also invested in strategic regional partnerships, expanding its community technology and services reach across the globe. In early 2021, the global group announced its LatAm partnership with Provokers, spanning seven offices across the region. The partnership provides widespread access to Human8 communities in the region and enables Provokers to serve its own global clients.
Today, Human8 is targeting the Asia Pacific region again, following successful acquisitions of ABN Impact (Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Manila, Jakarta, Bangkok, Seoul) and Answer Global (Taipei). The global community pioneer is now looking at Japan, the third biggest market for research services within APAC.
