About the Presentation:

Traditional research methods are slow, clunky, and expensive. Over the past several years, technology has evolved dramatically, giving consumer insight professionals the ability to create on-demand and meaningful connections between brands and consumers. This technology-fueled feedback loop now enables insight teams to gather information quickly, easily, and cost-effectively, providing brands the ability to innovate and engage at the speed of culture.
