Stakeholder

Anyone with an interest or involvement in the business of a client organisation, or someone who is otherwise relevant to it. So this might well include customers and potential customers, but also extends to shareholders, employees, neighbours, government agencies and so on. All are considered potential participants in qualitative market research.
