Helping you make the most of your alliances

For twenty years Silico Research has been a trusted adviser to global companies on partnering and alliances. Over that period we have developed a profound understanding of how to help our clients understand and interpret their alliances either individually or collectively. Over that time we have developed a number of qualitative and qualitative tools to allow our clients to assess and benchmark their performance as a partner across their portfolio of internal, commercial and academic collaborations. Some of those tools and services include:

  • Alliance and partner surveys The Current Partners Programme is used by large organisations to assess and benchmark their performance as a partner by polling senior executives across their portfolio of commercial and academic collaborations. The Programme has been developed over a number of years by Silico Research in collaboration with senior alliance professionals and other leading professional services firms. The survey instrument at the core of the Programme, which is customisable to the client's exact requirements, is one of the most comprehensive, reliable, assessments available of a company's strengths and weaknesses as a partner.
  • Exit interviews The collaboration exit interview is a confidential assessment of executives in terminated collaborations experience of being in a partnership with the client.
  • On ramp interviews The collaboration on ramp interview is a confidential assessment of executives in new collaborations expectations of being in a partnership with the client.
  • Partnership healthchecks The healthcheck delivers rapid feedback from the important influencers and decision makers in a key partnership to alliance managers on both sides of the partnership in a professional and confidential but cost-effective manner.
