Research Methodology
Research Nester focuses on providing transparent, data-driven research and actionable insights through a blend of structured research processes, expert analysis, and advanced, efficient statistical tools. We follow a multi-layered approach that ensures reliability and accuracy across all market forecasts and strategic reports.

Research Methodology Process
We ensure that our reports are insightful and predictive by conducting primary and secondary research, integrating rigorous top-down and bottom-up approaches, and utilizing tools such as SPSS modeling and data integration.

Bottom-Up and Top-Down Approach

Bottom-Up Approach
In this approach, we focus on collecting data on individual players, sales volumes, products, and pricing trends.
- Company revenues (product-wise, region-wise)
- Sales volumes and pricing
- Installed base, units sold, and average usage
- Country-level data from regulators and trade bodies
These micro-level insights are aggregated to estimate the market size and forecast growth. The bottom-up method is particularly effective for analyzing niche markets, competitive landscapes, and product-specific growth.
Top-Down Approach
In the top-down estimation model, we begin by assessing the total addressable market (TAM) and strategic positioning using macro-level data, such as:
- Global industry revenue
- Government expenditure
- Economic indicators (GDP, population, healthcare spending, etc.)
- Publicly available databases and industry forecasts
We then break down this data across market segments, subsegments, and regions, based on relevant ratios and historical trends. This method is ideal when global or regional market size data is available and needs to be segmented further for greater granularity.
Primary Research
Primary research consists of data collection from sources based on market trends, consumer preferences, competitive positioning, product performance, and market demand.

Secondary Research
Secondary research forms the backbone of market estimation, trend validation, and competitor benchmarking and enables the development of a robust, data-driven base before primary insights are integrated. It involves analyzing already published data from credible sources to identify historical trends and map market dynamics.

SPSS Approach
We employ SPSS software to conduct regression analysis for market forecast, perform correlation analysis and evaluate variable relationships, for instance, R&D investment vs. product launches.
SPSS provides :
- Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis
- Trend forecasting and regression modeling
- Consumer behavior segmentation
- Market correlation analysis
This is used to analyze large data sets and identify patterns, actionable trends, and anomalies with higher precision.
