How AI is transforming the role of today’s researcher?

Webinar

Loco emotion: How trains change you

Webinar

For 12 weeks, we lived on trains. Not just gazing out of windows as we crossed the Tay Bridge or slid past the sooty, post-industrial bones of Wolverhampton - but talking. Listening. Probing.

The future of AI in research: Power, efficiency, and trust

Webinar

AI in research is often seen as a race: who has the most GPUs, the cheapest energy, or the largest clusters. But this framing misses a bigger challenge: AI isn’t limited by algorithms—it’s limited by energy.

From share of voice to share of experience: How to fix traditional media

Webinar

Traditional Share of Voice measurement is flawed. It tracks paid advertising spend but misses the brand experiences that truly drive growth – sponsorships, experiential marketing, retail encounters and countless other touchpoints.

From Noise to Insight: Using AI to Turn Unstructured Conversations into Always-On Insight

Webinar

Most AI-in-research discussions focus on survey automation, GenAI summaries, or even synthetic respondents. But unstructured conversations – social media posts, support chats, emails, sales calls, and reviews - offer a different kind of insight: the Unsolicited Customer Opinion. Today, AI enables us to continuously listen to and interpret these conversations at scale, transforming them into reliable, decision-grade insight without commissioning new fieldwork. Beyond analysis, AI can recommend ac
