Company History
Our story
In 2009, Richard Wood, an experienced market research executive at Nielsen, and Kelly Close, a leading diabetes advocate, started work on a robust and honest feedback channel from people with diabetes to the companies that make diabetes drugs and medical devices. Richard and Kelly focused their efforts on building a large and diverse community of people with diabetes. Today, the dQ&A Patient Panel is an unmatched proprietary resource for our research, and dQ&A is a trusted and authentic voice in the diabetes community. Our research guides companies, informs regulators, and inspires innovators who are striving to make it easier for people to live and thrive with diabetes.
