We’re finalists at the MRS Awards 2025

We’re thrilled to share that STRAT7 Researchbods has been shortlisted for two categories at the prestigious MRS Awards 2025.

Together with our partners at M&C Saatchi, we’re finalists for the Jeremy Bullmore Award for Creative Development Research. This recognition comes for our work on the Every Story Matters campaign, part of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry. The campaign invited people across the UK to share deeply personal and often painful pandemic experiences. By embedding empathy-led, co-creative research into the campaign’s development, we ensured voices from disproportionately affected groups shaped the language, tone and emotional core of the work. Their real stories didn’t just inspire the campaign – they became the campaign.

We’re also proud to celebrate our Insight Manager Francesca Casaburi, who has been shortlisted for Research Live Young Researcher of the Year (supplier). Francesca is a rising star in the research world, known for diving into complex challenges and turning insights into action that drives commercial strategy and social good. From leading multi-market studies to testing new product launches for top brands, Francesca consistently balances rigour with empathy, delivering work that makes a real difference.

It’s a huge honour to be recognised in these categories and we can’t wait for the awards ceremony on 1st December 2025.
