It gives us great pleasure to announce that, as of January 2023, Pye Tait Ltd has become part of the highly successful, Leicester-based EMB Group. The acquisition by the EMB Group brings us two highly experienced new Directors and significant new resources from the much larger EMB structure. Being part of this dynamic Group, which has similar but complementary interests, will not change Pye Tait’s day to day activities as an independent research company but it will certainly empower the company with investment and additional human resources long into the future. Plans are already in place for an ambitious growth programme and, while there will be little change at first, watch this space for developments and news over the coming months.
Pye Tait Consulting worked right through the rigours of the 2020 Covid lockdowns and, since March 2020, successfully completed a range of critical pieces of research. We undertook a massive 6,000-completion survey of employers, an education providers survey of over 500 completions, and several other important pieces of primary and secondary research. We completed the seventh annual iteration of a survey for the Scottish Government, e-learning research for Historic England, two major commissions for the Nursing and Midwifery Council, an evaluation of leadership programmes, and much more.
Despite the difficulties of lockdowns, we continued to deliver the answers our clients are looking for and we are working harder than ever on a wide range of research projects and a new venture to promote the STEM agenda.

Adrian Smith will be re-joining Pye Tait as a Senior Research Manager in March, after an intermission of almost five years as a freelance Associate. Our entire team is delighted and excited that he’ll now be bringing his huge experience and talent back into full-time operation.
The topic of #robotics is particularly expansive and with so many advancing, adapting fields it’s hard to keep track – however Dr James Hilder of the @UniOfYork helps answer some of the most peculiar queries in this second part of our robotics episode.
