Toluna, Europe's leading online market research panel and survey technology provider, announces the launch of a research only, Russian panel community.

(PRWEB) April 22, 2007 -- Toluna, Europe's leading online market research panel and survey technology provider, announces the launch of a research only, Russian panel community.

The Russian panel, currently at 50,000 active members, has been built in direct response to growing demands from Toluna's client base for single-source sample supplies for eastern European studies.

Frederic-Charles Petit, CEO Toluna (http://www.toluna-group.com/ ), stated, "This expansion is inline with our strategy of continuing focusing on developing the best European online panel. For some time we have been fostering this panel, stimulating it and ensuring it meets our rigorous quality and panel health key performance indicator testing. I am pleased to satisfy our clients demands for a reliable, responsive and highly profiled Russian panel."

The Russian panel (http://www.toluna-group.com/our-panels/ ) community was built by the same planning group responsible for Toluna's 18 European and Asian panels as well as numerous custom panel building projects for major research clients across Europe.

In keeping with Toluna's current focus building 'deep' panellist portraits, the members are encouraged to continually up-date their profiles across key topic areas, allowing Touna to offer its clients 16 market specific specialist sub-panels whose profiling is tailored to the needs of researchers completing projects in these markets.
