What we do

Philosophy

Asare Research and Development (AR+D) was founded on the principle of transformative problem-solving through rigorous, first-principles thinking. Since our establishment in 2018 as the successor to Macleod Asare Chan, we have distinguished ourselves as a truly adaptable research and development firm that transcends traditional sector boundaries.

Our distinctive approach begins with deep empathy and comprehensive understanding. We don't just listen to our clients; we immerse ourselves in their challenges, conducting meticulous research to uncover the fundamental roots of complex problems. Our methodology is both systematic and innovative: we combine cutting-edge basic and applied research techniques to develop holistic, breakthrough solutions that address our clients' most critical needs.

By maintaining a sector-agnostic approach, we bring fresh perspectives to every project—whether we're exploring public policy intricacies, designing advanced computer hardware, or solving intricate business challenges. Our commitment is not just to solve problems, but to reimagine possibilities.

Diversity Equity & Inclusion

At Asare Research and Development, diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just principles—they are the cornerstone of our organizational DNA. We recognize that true innovation emerges from the intersection of diverse perspectives, experiences, and identities.

Our commitment to DEI goes beyond rhetoric. We actively cultivate an environment where every team member and client is valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique insights. We understand that individuals exist at complex intersections of identity, and we view this diversity as our greatest strategic asset.

Our DEI initiatives are comprehensive and intentional:

  • We implement structured programs to promote diverse hiring and leadership development
  • Our leadership undergoes continuous training in cultural competence and unconscious bias
  • We create regular forums for dialogue, learning, and mutual understanding
  • We track and transparently report on our DEI progress and goals

We believe that by championing diversity, we not only create a more just workplace but also generate more innovative, nuanced, and effective solutions for our clients.

Global Reach

AR+D is a truly global organization, designed to operate seamlessly across international boundaries and cultural contexts. Our capabilities extend far beyond traditional geographical limitations, positioning us as a premier global research and development partner.

Our international infrastructure is strategically crafted:

  • Comprehensive support coverage spanning all major time zones
  • In-house language capabilities in English, Spanish, French, Korean, and Chinese
  • Translation services supporting an additional 145 languages
  • A network of international partners and collaborators

We don't just work globally—we think globally. Our teams conduct daily cross-cultural meetings with nuanced understanding of diverse workflows and communication styles. We maintain the highest international standards, ensuring that cultural sensitivity and precise communication are at the heart of every interaction.

Top-tier corporations and governments worldwide choose AR+D because we deliver more than solutions—we deliver culturally intelligent, precisely executed strategies that solve complex problems efficiently and innovatively.
