The battle for consumer truth: how consumer and sensory research is facing disruption
The consumer and sensory research landscape is changing. Tech-led start-ups undaunted by the weight of history are re-writing the research rule book as technology is enabling us to engage with consumers in ways we never could have imagined 20 years ago. Behavioural science, which applies a psychological lens to explain consumer behaviours, is capturing the attention of marketing and insight professionals in companies around the globe.
But is the established consumer and sensory world bracing itself for the future? In this interactive workshop, we will explore the disruption which is taking place, how to utilise technology to its best advantage in research, as well as look to the discipline of behavioural science to help us build fuller and more rounded pictures of human experience. With live feedback from the audience and interactive exercises, we’ll ask candidly whether consumer and sensory research is fit for purpose in this new age and what we need to do to remain relevant.
Speakers:
- Emma Gubisch, Head of Consumer & Sensory Insight, Leatherhead Food Research
- Dave Fenning, Senior Sensory Consultant, Leatherhead Food Research
- Matt Herd, Commercial Sector Manager, Sagentia
