Viper Retrospective
Started in 1999 VIPer was Britain's first continuous media and lifestyle panel survey of AB's. It was commissioned and funded by three leading media owners:

Channel 4 Television
GCap
News International


Through direct dialogue with a panel of 1,000 24-54 year old AB's, the study over 10 waves gained insight into:

• Their media and lifestyle choices, relationships and consumption patterns
• The key issues that influence their attitudes and behaviour
• Their purchase motivation, habits and consumption habits

Historically a difficult group to target, VIPer demonstrated that Britain's 10 million AB's are more than just one amorphous mass of spending power - they are a diversity of distinct and robust groups united not by wealth or social class but by the opportunities presented to them.
