First-ever survey to highlight the presence of Sikh Scientists within the UK’s academia and industrial R & D sectors.

We are launching the first-ever survey on our newly developed platform, as a progressive initiative to highlight the contribution of Sikh Scientists within the UK. In this survey, we request you to participate in providing general information about yourself or any other Sikh scientists that you may know of, who is actively working either within academic institutions or industries (both small and large companies).

There is no personal information that is required from you, and the questions consist of general know-how about the fields of work and approximate zone of location. Absolutely no personal data is stored or used in this survey, nor shared with any third party without permission, as per the GDPR rules of the United Kingdom. Only statistical responses to the questions are required for gauging the approximate estimation of number of Sikh Scientists in the UK, without revealing or compromising anyone’s identity, whatsoever.

We further declare that, our platform is built around the most secure website database that encompasses the highest level of security available on internet at the moment. We have advanced anti-phishing and spamming interfaces employed to protect the integrity of all our users. All the collected data will be encrypted and remains inaccessible to everyone, including the administrators of the website.

We are also giving out £5 and £10 Amazon gift vouchers to some lucky winners, at the end of our survey. Please opt in by writing your email in the end. We assure you that the email will NOT be (mis)used for marketing purposes, or giving out to any third party. It will remain encrypted and will be only used to communicate about your winning, at the end of the survey period.

The survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete and can only be submitted by answering ALL questions.

We thank you for taking this survey, which would really help us to serve the Sikh community better.
