FromInsight to Inspiration

We are committed to partnering with you to unearth those game-changing nuggets of insights that can spark inspiration.
Driven by the spark of insatiable curiosity.

Diving deeper into the why of things.
Why do consumers behave the way they do?
Why does social media impact society the way it does?
Why does one brand communication work better than another?

It’s the WHY that gets us high.
And it’s what adds true value to our clients’ brands.
It drives our thinking. It drives our process.
From Analysis to Alchemy. From Insight to Inspiration.

IT ALL BEGINS WITH THE WHY. AND ENDS WITH, THEREFORE. WHY? THEREFORE

OUR STORY

We are a team of passionate women who connected organically with a simple plan- to partner each other in pursuing a shared love for human insighting. Each of us brings over two decades of qualitative research experience and we have the quiet confidence in our ability to make a great team.

The journey so far has been joyous and satisfying. Wherefore is just two years old and we are overwhelmed by the clients who have put their faith in us. This has strengthened our belief and spurred us to press on with greater conviction.

Meera Raja

Twenty-five-plus years in qualitative research have granted Meera extensive expertise across diverse consumer cohorts and geographical regions. Understanding the needs of both clients and consumers is what truly ignites her passion. At heart, she's a psychologist and firmly believes that all behaviors can be traced back to culture. Meera possesses the ability to ‘hear’ both the marketer and the consumer & arrive at compelling insights that unlock brand growth.


Shilpa Lokras

With over 20 years of experience in qualitative research, Shilpa is passionate about bringing the consumer to life for the client and addressing the 'so what' question. She excels at crafting powerful, actionable strategies for clients. Her sharp eye for insights into product design, construction, and décor categories stems from her love of books and interior design. She is equally passionate about her work in rural areas, whether she's engaging with farmers in Maharashtra or ASHA workers in Bihar.


Pavani Fernandes

Although Pavani has spent more than two decades in the field of qualitative research, consumers continue to surprise and interest her. She possesses a natural empathy that allows her to communicate and uncover otherwise hidden facets of consumers. She is equally skilled at engaging with housewives in rural UP, truckers in Ludhiana, and high-net-worth individuals about gourmet chocolates. Yet, some of her best work has been with children and youth. Her passion for travel is just another excuse to immerse herself in and interpret various cultures and their people.
