DC Research is an economics, heritage and culture research company working throughout the UK. We have a particular focus on applying economic research tools and methods to the museums sector.
Since our establishment in 2008, we have established a national reputation for providing high-quality research and have developed a strong portfolio of museum sector research. We have supported a wide range of museums in various ways, including making the case for funding, evaluating the impact of projects and activities, evidencing the economic and social contribution to local and national economies, researching the impact of admissions charging and other initiatives, and providing strategic and organisational support. We have also directly supported AIM and its members by leading on key studies – including the AIM Economic Impact Toolkit and admissions charging for museums.
Our AIM membership is a result of our long-standing interest in the museum sector in the UK, and the independent museum sector in particular. We have led on key research studies for AIM and for individual AIM members and we want to continue to help support, sustain, and develop the independent museums sector through our membership of AIM.
We have worked with a wide range of AIM members over the years – individually and collectively – through a wide range of our work, and we offer specific discounts on our prices for AIM members. Please contact us for more information.
