10.10 Marketing measurement in a privacy first world
Growing user concerns about privacy and increased privacy regulations have set in motion a series of changes that will reshape the digital advertising ecosystem for years to come.
Successful online measurement has historically been heavily reliant on cookies. However, due to cookie restrictions in browsers, blind spots from cross-device shopping as well as privacy regulations, there are increasing scenarios where it’s no longer possible to observe whether a conversion has taken place.
Marketing Measurement has changed.
This session will explore the power of conversion modelling and how it can be employed as a tool to bridge the measurement gap between devices and across the online-to-offline divide. It will also examine how the new Google Analytics uses machine learning to provide better understanding of customer needs, as well how it addresses some of the most pressing questions on data and privacy.
Katrin Werres, Head of Measurement & Analytics, Google
Nitin Gulati, Measurement & Attribution Lead, Google

In conversation with
Litthya Burgin, Shopper & Category Insights, GSK
Let’s forget 2020 for a moment and go back to 2019, when GSK started to explore the role of an AI Self Care Coach that you can interact with in a retail healthcare environment. This story tells of the multi-faceted research approach that was created to understand, consumer reactions to the AI virtual assistant, situations that would best fit the assistance, and the impact of such technologies on the future strategy of GSK.
Hear how this innovative journey based on multiple methodologies unfolded and what was learnt on the journey.

11.25 Embedding agility into large-scale international research
During the pandemic HSBC still had key business priorities and flagship research projects to deliver. However, the uncertain and fast-moving times led to a greater desire for the brand research to be iterative, responsive and agile.
This case study focuses in on how HSBC has combined traditional and AI methodologies to deliver truly iterative projects that are able to respond to changing business priorities as well as engage key stakeholders by bringing new insights into conversation from the outset. Hear how HSBC’s approach ensures insight is agile, fast and iterative, without compromising on the detail.

11.50 Panel - Covid-19 and the gift of harmonious insights: how the pandemic forced a singular view of data and market research functions
The insight industry has always recognised the benefits of bringing together the disciplines of market research and data analytics. Some brands have nailed it, and others have struggled to achieve that coveted synergy. In an unprecedented shift, it was a global pandemic that forced many brands to unify their functions to survive.
Join panellists as they discuss how data and insight functions have adapted to lead businesses through the height of the pandemic and what the role of agencies has been in supporting brands with new solutions.
Chair: Jane Rudling, MRS Fellow and Managing Director, Walnut Unlimited

12.20 Lunch
12.50 Creating our ‘cyborg’
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is constantly exploring new ways to gather customer insight. Combined with a tightening of belts in recent years this has meant an ever-increasing need to assess the value for money of insight spend. Consequently, JLR wanted to explore the viability of reducing the high cost associated with its emotional brand tracking inputs. So, four years ago, MM Eye began a journey to create a more efficient solution – could an AI solution take on the heavy lifting done by human coders - could it be done, could the level of detail needed be retained and could the existing high precision & quality be matched?
The journey started by reviewing off the shelf products & ended with development of a new, bespoke & transferable ‘Cyborg’ system (a human-machine pairing). JLR’s emotional inputs have never looked so good!

13.15 Combining disparate data to deliver new levels of consumer understanding and engagement
The average pension of a women is 1/5th the size of a man’s. STRAT7 and The Wisdom council have been working together with an industry wide project team to create a viable solution for financial companies to be able to identify, engage and encourage women to take greater responsibility for their financial stability.
This approach demonstrates the steps of how a community panel together with advanced analytics was used to establish and deliver an effective engagement strategy. Hear how blending multiple datasets created additional data insights that enhanced understanding around original outputs from traditional research techniques. Currently, social campaigns are ongoing to stress test the engagement strategy.

14.00 Panel: data science, behavioural science and social science – are they the holy trinity of modern-day insight?
This panel brings together experts from data science, social science and behavioural science, to investigate how human, behavioural and machine learning driven insight can work together to create more positive outcomes. Join panellists discussing why the three sciences should work together and how they can do so in ways such as:

14.30 Software-like food development driven by text analytics
As a fast-growing startup, Planted - a plant-based meat alternatives producer - has put a lot of emphasis on listening to their customers from the outset. The company has also embraced automation and software design principles as central tenets of its development strategy.
This session will demonstrate the extent to which the company’s development roadmap has been steered by advanced analytics from user feedback.
