RANZ Conference 2019: New Horizons focussed on the relentlessly changing landscape of the world we work and live in, and in this context, what harnessing the true power of insights means. We want to champion the new breed of insight professionals, explore the emerging and adjunct insight disciplines and look to how these contribute to commercial decision making.
