Data & Research
Sector intelligence, CIC register analysis, policy submissions and community-driven research to inform better practice and policy.
When we gather and share data about the CIC sector, everyone benefits. Better intelligence means better decisions — for individual CICs, for the sector as a whole, and for the policymakers shaping the regulatory environment we operate in.
Our research programme focuses on:
Sector Analysis
Tracking the growth, distribution and composition of the CIC register to understand where the model is thriving and where more support is needed.
Policy Engagement
Submitting evidence-based responses to government consultations, helping ensure the CIC legislation remains fit for purpose.
Community Research
Surveying the CIC community to surface challenges, opportunities and priorities — then sharing those findings openly.
Knowledge Sharing
Publishing insights, case studies and data visualisations so every CIC can learn from the collective experience of the sector.
