WiTF: FUTURE-ATING OUR RECOVERY WEBINAR
Ipsos’ second webinar in our WiTF series discusses strategies that organisations and brands can use right now - to not only understand their possible futures - but to shape the future to obtain advantage from crisis, and to fortify their commercial success.
Please join us to unpack the challenges and business opportunities and hear from our three inspirational speakers covering the following topics:
Science-Based Future-Casting. Presented by Kathy Benson who will discuss the research and Behavioural Science frameworks we can use to predict or create our future, even amidst a sea of uncertainty and volatility.
Living through the Covid Cloud and Beyond. Aiden Regan will share ‘hot off the press’ insights drawn from our #Home online community, about how our lives have changed through 2020, and what that means to us now and over the next few years.
Lifestyles & Livelihoods: Our Urban Future. Presented by Urban Futurist Stephen Yarwood, who explores preferred futures for cities, communities and corporations and who is known worldwide as a thought leader on the “future citizen”. Dynamic, provocative and a highly motivating speaker, Stephen will explore how we can recognise the short, medium and long-term opportunities from this crisis to do lots of the things that have always been “too hard to change.”
