Stepping into a New Year as Forttuna Global Excellence Award Winners

intO has been named ‘Research Company of the Year (2024)’ at the Forttuna Global Excellence Awards. This prestigious recognition celebrates our commitment to delivering innovative, human-centred research that empowers global brands to make informed, meaningful decisions in an increasingly complex world.

A Testament to Innovation and Excellence

At intO, we combine global trend analysis with in-depth local insights to uncover behaviours and attitudes in any context. The judges at the Forttuna Global Excellence Awards recognised our ability to navigate the challenges of cross-cultural research, deliver high-quality insights, and provide actionable strategies for our clients.

Our work spans 24 countries, often simultaneously, with our globally distributed team operating seamlessly across time zones and cultural contexts. This agility allows us to deliver insights with speed, precision, and cultural sensitivity—qualities that have become essential in today’s rapidly changing global landscape.

Why Studio intO Stood Out to the Judges

The Forttuna judges highlighted key strengths that set intO apart in the competitive world of market research:

  • Global Reach, Local Depth: Our unique structure integrates a remote-first Central Team with a network of 130+ Local Researchers across 50+ countries. This allows us to deliver globally relevant insights while staying deeply attuned to local nuances.
  • Strategic Agility: Whether running exploratory studies or highly structured multi-region research, our team excels at adapting methodologies to fit the unique requirements of each project—ensuring clarity, consistency, and actionable outcomes.
  • Commitment to Inclusivity: Inclusivity isn’t just a value—it’s embedded in our approach. From participant recruitment to insight delivery, we ensure diverse perspectives are represented and respected throughout the research process.
  • Collaboration at the Core: Our clients often describe working with intO as an extension of their own teams. We create collaborative spaces where clients feel involved, informed, and empowered to make strategic decisions.

Our Work in Action: Real-World Impact

From supporting Pinterest’s global expansion strategy to running Responsible AI research with YouTube, our projects demonstrate the power of culturally informed insights. We don’t just deliver data; we craft stories that help our clients make confident, informed decisions.

The Forttuna Award recognises the measurable impact of our work—insights that lead to product innovations, better user experiences, and meaningful connections between global brands and their audiences.

Looking Ahead: Ambitions for 2025

This award isn’t just a milestone—it’s a launchpad for even greater ambitions. In 2025, we aim to:

  • Expand our presence in emerging markets to better understand evolving global behaviours.
