Lusaka, Zambia – 2024: M31 Research, a leading provider of data collection, programme evaluations, and policy analysis services, has marked a significant milestone in 2024 with the establishment of its dedicated headquarters in Zambia. This strategic move underscores the company's commitment to enhancing operational efficiency, fostering innovation, and delivering exceptional value to its clients across Africa.
Strengthening the Foundation in Zambia
The new headquarters in Zambia serves as the nerve center for M31 Research’s operations, offering a centralized hub for managing multi-country projects and facilitating collaboration across teams. The move reflects the organization’s long-term vision to strengthen its presence in Zambia while scaling its capabilities to address complex development challenges across the region.
Expanding Presence in Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Rwanda
In 2024, M31 Research successfully registered operations in Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Rwanda, laying the groundwork for sustainable growth in these strategic markets. Alongside registration, the company actively recruited highly qualified consultants and skilled enumerators in each country, ensuring the capacity to deliver data collection, analysis, and evaluation services that meet global standards.
In Kenya, M31 Research has established a robust network of local experts capable of supporting both urban and rural research initiatives. Zimbabwe’s team is equipped with state-of-the-art tools, including tablet-based data collection devices and secure data management systems, enabling the execution of complex surveys and assessments. Meanwhile, in Rwanda, M31 Research is building partnerships with local stakeholders to ensure tailored solutions that address country-specific priorities.
Commitment to Quality and Consistency
Despite operating across multiple geographies, M31 Research remains steadfast in upholding its reputation for delivering reliable, high-quality services. Standardized training protocols, ethical approval processes, and rigorous quality assurance mechanisms have been implemented across all locations to ensure consistency in service delivery.
“Our expansion into Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Rwanda marks an exciting chapter for M31 Research. We are bringing the same expertise, commitment to quality, and client-centered approach that has defined our work in Zambia,” said Chisangu Matome, CEO of M31 Research.
Poised for Regional Impact
With its headquarters firmly established in Zambia and operational foundations laid in Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Rwanda, M31 Research is strategically positioned to respond to the evolving needs of governments, development partners, and non-profit organizations. The organization’s ability to deliver data-driven insights and actionable recommendations remains central to its mission of driving meaningful change across Africa.
As M31 Research looks ahead, the focus remains on fostering partnerships, building local capacity, and leveraging technology to unlock new opportunities for growth and impact.
