09.40 How to influence people online, offline and in the Metaverse
The pandemic quickly caused changes in consumer behaviour. Shoppers now expect immersive experiences with access to reviews, QR-codes and promotions in-store as well as online. Are these conveniences leading consumers to (subconsciously) expect brands to focus on providing means for instant gratification?
Join Kantar and Meta as they discuss how marketers can future-proof their strategy with analysis involving Behavioral Science and the Psychology of Wellbeing (PERMA). They’ll also share behavioural science nudges to help delegates influence the entire scope of consumer behaviour – online, offline and in the Metaverse.

13.40 Matching the mood: how (and why) to tailor nudges for the exact moment they are received
Imagine your favourite football team just lost the big match. Would you be in the mood to receive an upbeat, social proof-based nudge in the ad break promoting a healthy lifestyle? You know what nudges are, and you know how important it is to personalise them for your specific audience but their effectiveness changes from moment-to-moment according to things like mood. With the big data revolution capturing our data every second and with big tech providing the means to talk to individuals in each one of those seconds, the time is right to start customising nudges to mood, goals, and context. In this fascinating seminar, Kubic Intelligence will explain the secrets of how to do it.

14.10 A behavioural science approach to identifying and developing diverse talent at Natwest group
This NatWest Group case study will examine how Behavioural Science was used to attract and select colleagues into its Talent Academy. The aim was to support all of NatWest’s 65,000 employees to feel confident to embrace this internal opportunity and to drastically increase the diversity of applications across the internal talent pipeline, with a specific focus on disadvantaged backgrounds and under-represented groups.
Hear how the behavioural science team applied a range of behavioural techniques to improve processes and communications and how the work has already achieved impressive results with targets for BAME and reasonable adjustments requests being exceeded.

15.30 Good for your health? A realistic and pragmatic guide to applying behavioural science in healthcare
There are extensive opportunities to apply behavioural science thinking in healthcare. However, the practical application is beset with challenges.
In this session Ipsos and Viiv Healthcare will share a case study of the practical application of behavioural science including insight into the internal systems and processes that have been developed to facilitate integration of behavioural science in healthcare studies. They will explore how behavioural science can optimise analysis of more traditional methodologies and the importance of client collaboration and a one-team approach to delivering tangible outcomes with a clear focus on business impact.

Examine how the use of in-the-moment techniques, such as eye tracking technology and engaging shoppers in stores, has provided real not claimed behavioural observations. Hear how the application of behavioural science, interpreted with consumer psychology findings have led to design changes to product packaging and in store positioning.
