London, U.K., April 28, 2008 - Survey Sampling International (SSI), the premier global provider of sampling solutions for survey research, has opened a new office in Stockholm, Sweden. This will be the new hub for servicing SSI’s existing clients in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark, as well as for developing new relationships with market research agencies, consulting firms, ad agencies and other market research professionals who need sampling, programming and hosting, data processing or panel building solutions for their online quality into these countries.

SSI is seeing demand for its sampling services growing in the Nordics, and chose Stockholm as the new location for its Nordics operations because the city is the region’s leading knowledge centre. Over a quarter of the city’s citizens have university degrees and Stockholm is a prominent centre for finance, IT and telecommunications.   

Ulf Björnemark, office director of the new Stockholm office and sales manager of SSI's Nordic region, said: “Our Nordic business is enjoying healthy growth, which this new office will help us maintain and drive. Stockholm will become an important hub for the business in Europe and a centre of excellence for conducting quality market research in the Nordics”. 

The Stockholm office is the latest new office in a general expansion of SSI internationally. The new Nordic office is located in central Stockholm at Mäster Samuelsgatan 60, 8 tr S - 111 21, Stockholm, Sweden.
