Founded in 2007, the premise for the KJT Group model began many years before. KJT Group leadership team members have spent a combined 50+ years in both corporate and academic research settings. While the traditional corporate model has advantages, the focus on sales rather than research puts most of those advantages in the wrong place. Alternatively, academia, while offering the promise of precision, simply cannot meet real-world timelines or costs. Thus, a melding of these approaches was conceived and later implemented with the inception of KJT Group. With a dedicated team model based on high levels of client service, driven by a robust research staff, KJT Group continuously strives to balance academic approaches with business efficiencies.
