kMatrix History

kMatrix is the result of a 35+ year research program originating in Harvard and is headquartered in Greetham, Rutland, with a small core research team. We work with further associates and partner organisations in the UK and Globally and have mapped and quantified over 430 sectors.

We provide back room services to organisations such as Deloitte and PWC in the UK, New Zealand, Australia, US and the EU for sectoral analysis and due diligence for sectoral development and investment.

We also provide our business and technology profiling services through these channels to market, as well as direct to universities for technology spinouts and individual businesses for development purposes. Further customers include government departments such as BEIS, Home Office and various local and regional government departments.

Our organisational model involves developing our core strengths in competitive market intelligence, strengthening our research base through joint ventures with academic or scientific partners and then partnering with established channels to market to generate increased revenues.

Our business model includes bespoke research projects, data licensing and strategic consultancy.

Our USP
kMatrix is a data house that specialises in providing evidential data for business modelling and analysis on a multi-sectoral basis. Our most delighted clients work in markets that are comparatively new, not well defined or not well serviced by reliable and robust market intelligence sources.

Recent examples include Carbon Market Intelligence Services, Earth Observation Services from Space, Climate Change Adaptation Economy, Digital Media, Security, Cyber Security, Law & Order markets, Geo- services, Marine Environment, markets for nano-technology filters and the Low Carbon Economy.

Simon Shaw-Fugro
"We contacted kMatrix because of their ground breaking work for government on markets for the Marine Environment. They provided us with bespoke analysis for several countries across our complete range of marine services. This analysis was totally beyond anything we could produce for ourselves and was used to inform our current strategic growth strategy."
Roger Evans-Stafford Engineering
"We found kMatrix through a New Zealand- funded initiative designed to assist business growth. We received unique insight into international markets and the basis for competitiveness in those markets. We have adopted the research findings and have already shared the kMatrix data with other New Zealand companies."
Brian McCann-IT Meters
"My previous experience with kMatrix convinced me that they were the right people to analyse future markets for a new sensor technology. They engaged with me (off and on) over a period of years and their involvement has enabled me to set up and acquire significant funding for a new high tech business here in Ireland."
Brian McCann-Clarehill Plastics
"It was amazing, the industry had no coherent or consistent information on the installed base of single skinned oil tanks or the environmental threat they represented. kMatrix and their multi- sourced approach produced new information -for the past 20 years!- that was robust enough to inform my own business strategy and to take to government and suggest an environmental policy change."
Prof. Mark Maslin-UCL
"Amazing depth and richness of data that we rigorously tested with potential customers in many countries. Provides really valuable market insight."
Dr Michael Cross-Carbon Auditors
"Carbon Auditors have created partnerships and won investment as a direct result of the measurements and market data kMatrix developed for us."
Nick Storer- CEO EnviroLink
"kMatrix supply market intelligence that helps us design and deliver business support services to companies operating in the Low Carbon economy."
Tom Foucade- CEO EnviroBusiness
"Exciting new market intelligence that had an immediate and significant impact on regional policy and investment in the South East."
Michael Gallagher- Regional Energy Projects Manager, Midlands Energy Hub
"kMatrix were exceptional to work with, they, alongside their project partner SWM, delivered the project in a way that felt like they were part of our team. They understood the brief, the communication was excellent throughout the project, they listened, were flexible, adaptable and ultimately delivered on time an excellent piece of work on the Low Carbon and Environmental Goods and Service Sector."
