With its recent office launch in Australia, PI now has research centers on four continents to efficiently and effectively provide coverage across all major institutional markets.

Consistent with previous international expansions, Co-Founder and Co-CEO Leighton Thomas has been devising a go-to market strategy in the country for the past year.
