As artificial intelligence, evolving consumer behaviors, and declining engagement challenge traditional research methods, the industry faces a critical question: How do we create research experiences that people genuinely want to participate in while generating richer, more reliable insights?
This session brings together two complementary perspectives on the future of market research. The first presentation challenges the industry's long-standing reliance on incentivized survey participation and explores whether escalating investments in fraud detection, screening, and data cleaning are addressing the wrong problem. Instead, attendees will consider a future where AI-enabled, conversation-based methodologies transform quantitative research into engaging human experiences, producing deeper insights while improving respondent engagement and data quality.
Building on that theme, the second presentation demonstrates what happens when researchers move beyond studying consumers and instead bring consumers directly into the research process. Through a case study with Gen Z researchers working alongside Filippo Berio USA and Kroger, attendees will learn how embedding members of the target audience as interviewers, observers, analysts, and strategists revealed behaviors and decision-making patterns that traditional approaches often miss. The presentation will also candidly examine AI's role in the research process, highlighting both its value and the safeguards required to ensure trustworthy outcomes.
Together, these presentations challenge conventional assumptions about who participates in research, how insights are gathered, and the role AI should play in future methodologies. Attendees will gain practical inspiration for designing research that is more human-centered, more engaging, and ultimately more reflective of real-world consumer behavior.

Anna Goldhahn leads research and behavioral science initiatives that support business, marketing, and customer strategy decisions at Prudential Financial. Throughout her career, spanning both agency and client-side leadership roles, she has focused on understanding how people make decisions and how organizations can better serve them. Her recent work explores one of the research industry's toughest challenges: engaging increasingly difficult-to-reach audiences. Anna is a frequent advocate for rethinking the participant experience and for creating research that earns participation rather than relying solely on financial incentives.

David doesn't fit neatly into the "academic presenter" box and that's exactly the point. As a Professor of Marketing at NKU's Haile College of Business and founder of The Underground Agency, he's spent nearly two decades building something rare: a research practice where real clients get real answers, and students do the work. With 25+ years in marketing and 17 years studying Gen Z and Millennials before it was a mainstream obsession, he brings the instincts of a practitioner and the rigor of a researcher – a combination that earned him recognition as a Cincinnati Marketing Legend.
The Underground Agency, recognized by AACSB International as a Catalyst of Change and one of the Top 25 Innovations That Inspire, is fully embedded in David's courses, giving student researchers an immersive, internship-caliber experience on projects for brands like P&G, Kroger, PepsiCo, Frontier Airlines, and Filippo Berio. It's part classroom, part consultancy, entirely serious about impact.
What sets David apart is his obsession with the gap between what people say and what they actually do...the behavioral undercurrents that traditional research often misses. His teams design mixed-methods research from the ground up: deliberate sequencing of qualitative and quantitative phases, in-context observation, and AI-assisted synthesis that accelerates without replacing human judgment. Clients keep coming back for another reason too: the researchers are the audience. When brands like P&G, PepsiCo, and Filippo Berio need to understand Gen Z, David's student teams don't just study them, they are them. That insider proximity, combined with rigorous methodology, is what turns messy shopper reality into strategies brands can act on Monday morning.

GLP-1 medications are changing appetite, but appetite is only one part of why people eat. Habit, ritual, emotion, and sensory expectation don't just disappear when the hunger signal does. So what happens to the product experience when appetite is no longer the driver?
Curion studied consumers across two phases — a qualitative Digital Selfnography and a quantitative Central Location Test — to find out. We recruited current users, former users, and never-users of GLP-1 medications, studied side by side, across their real daily eating lives and product evaluations.
In this webinar, lead researchers Hudson Hausmann and Rachel Orona present what we found and what it means for the products being developed for this consumer right now.
What You'll Learn
- How GLP-1 usage impacts appetite, cravings, satiety, and the motivation to eat
- Where the physical and emotional experiences of eating align and where they don't
- Which product categories GLP-1 users are focused on now, and how product choice and occasions are changing
- Whether GLP-1 users are consciously seeking different textures, formats, and portion sizes, or whether the shift is happening before they've recognized it
- How the joy of eating differs across current, former, and never-users of GLP-1 medications

Market research has never been more accessible or more intelligent. Join us for an exclusive webinar where we'll unveil the latest AI-powered innovations inside Pollfish, our DIY survey platform designed to put the power of professional-grade research in everyone's hands.
Whether you're a seasoned insights professional or someone just getting started with market research, the pressure to gather faster and more actionable data continues to grow.

Women research professionals face a real gap: they're adopting AI slower while their roles face 3x higher replacement risk. But here's the plot twist — that gap is actually an opportunity.
Join the Cint team as they flip the script on AI anxiety. They’ll dive into real data from their AI Workplace Evolution research to show you exactly what's holding talented professionals back from AI adoption — and more importantly, how to move past it. Expect honest insights into the ethical questions keeping researchers up at night, plus concrete tactics to shift from "Will AI replace me?" to "How do I lead with it?"
They’ll also shine a spotlight on entry-level roles: what's actually changing, where new opportunities are emerging, and how to position yourself (or your team) ahead of the curve. Because AI isn't just a threat to manage — it's a competitive advantage waiting to be claimed.
Walk away with a proactive playbook for both your career and your organization. The future of work isn't about adapting to AI. It's about you leading it.
- From Skeptic to Ally
Real sentiment data on how US and UK professionals are moving from "Will it replace me?" to Ai-driven career empowerment — and what actually builds that trust.
- An Evolving Industry
How researchers and insights professionals are actually using AI today: what's working, what isn’t, and how AI-empowered teams are already pulling ahead.
- The Entry-Level Reset: Same Title, Different Skill Set
Is AI replacing early-stage career research professionals? We’ll explore what the “new” entry-level looks like, the AI literacy that's now table stakes, and the human skills that suddenly matter even more.
- How Top-Down AI Confidence Becomes Bottom-Up Competitive Edge
When leaders model AI adoption over replacement, anxiety transforms into momentum — and your organization gains the edge.

You're talented. You're driven. So why does the path to senior leadership feel blocked?
The answer might surprise you: it's financial literacy. Women leaders are 12% less likely to receive business acumen training than men—creating a massive barrier to C-suite advancement. Without confidence in financial statements, P&L management, and business metrics, even the most qualified professionals struggle to speak up in strategic discussions and compete for executive roles.
