In 1990, former VW quality manager Dirk Bösenberg founded the company TEMA-Q Technik für Management und Qualität GmbH in Meinersen. The main focus of the company is market research for quality assurance in the automotive industry. With a few employees, such as a project manager, 10 to 15 interviewers, a data entry specialist and an executive secretary, TEMA-Q started with some initial difficulties.
