Ridgetop Research

Ridgetop Research is a medium-sized network founded in 2008, operating a standard expert network model.

Ridgetop has a shared background with three other New York-based expert networks:

• Just like Primary Insight and Mosaic Research, Ridgetop Research traces its roots back to Vista Research, an expert network founded in 2001, acquired by S&P in 2005 and sold to Guidepoint in 2009.

• Just like Coleman Research, the founding team has a background at Multex, a financial information service launched in the dot-com wave of 1999 and acquired by Reuters in 2003.

Ridgetop Research built what it described as an exclusive custom recruiting framework, using a pod-based structure that gives each client access to a broader pool of recruiting expertise than typically achievable at the individual fund level. Aside from the standard expert network operations, Ridgetop Research also provides surveying services, whereby the firm’s team assists clients in questionnaire preparation, sampling, and administering the survey online or via telephone.

The network serves its clients from offices in New York and Charlotte.

Inex One identified Ridgetop as a regional champion in our recurring review of the expert network market size. Regional champions have a particularly strong foothold in their respective regions.

Thanks to good service levels and positive client feedback, Ridgetop Research earned a Bronze mark in our ranking of the best expert networks.
