Three ways to work with Meridian Consensus.

Consulting partner, data partner, referral partner. Each program runs under a written agreement with disclosed terms. Editorial control of every published figure stays with the Editor-in-Chief, never delegated to a partner.

The three programs

Pick the lane that fits your practice.

Each program is named, scoped, and applied for separately. If your practice spans more than one, the desks below combine the relevant terms into a single agreement.

Strategy & advisory firms

Consulting partner

For strategy consultancies, M&A advisors, and corporate-finance practices that resell or co-deliver decision-grade research alongside their advisory work. Reports are delivered under a co-branded export with the consultancy's identity in the front matter.

Who it's for

·Tier-2 / boutique strategy consultancies
·Sell-side and buy-side M&A advisors
·Corporate-finance practices serving operators

How it works

1Sign a one-page partner agreement covering co-branding rights and confidentiality.
2Order full reports or commissioned scope at the partner rate; pass through to your client.
3White-label PDF and PowerPoint exports carry your firm's branding under our editorial standards.

Information providers · platforms

Data partner

For data providers and information platforms whose proprietary datasets can extend Meridian's evidence paths in a specific sector or geography. Inbound data is attributed in the source index; outbound figures may be embedded in the partner's surface under a written licence.

·Sectoral data providers with verified panel coverage
·Trade-association datasets and benchmarking syndicates
·Platforms that want to surface Meridian figures inside their UI

How it works

1Submit a dataset profile, coverage, refresh cadence, methodology, sample.
2We evaluate against the source-hierarchy framework. Strong fits move to a written licence.
3Embedded figures and inbound datasets always carry attribution.

Operating principles

How partnerships actually run.

Editorial independence

No partner, consulting, data, or referral, has any influence over a published figure or the corrections protocol. Editorial control sits with the Editor-in-Chief and committee.

Written terms

Every partnership runs under a one-page written agreement. We don't run opaque revenue-share arrangements or undisclosed incentives.

Attribution

Inbound datasets are credited in the source index. Outbound co-branded research carries our editorial standards and the partner's identity, both visibly disclosed.

No exclusivity by default

Partners are not exclusive. We'd rather work openly with anyone whose practice aligns with our standards than lock the surface to a single firm.

Other than a partnership

Just want to commission a study?

The fastest path is the analyst team. Send a brief, sub-sector, geography, decision context, deadline, and the analyst returns scope, price, and timeline within one business day.
