Speech Topics
Cracking the Leisure Code
The mission across many industries is “consumercentricity.” The best way to learn what consumers really want is to understand what they do in their free time and why. This presentation explores the internal and external motivators behind what consumers define as fun today.
The 18 Megatrends Matrix
This session is based in Trend Hunter's own reusable Trend Hunting framework, the 6 Patterns of Opportunity, and our newly developed network of 18 evergreen consumer behavior-based trends. Each Megatrend will be briefly explained, with the most relevant explained more in-depth. These trends cross industries, and are illustrated through case studies from various categories.
The Micro-Generations Matrix
This presentation introduces Trend Hunter's Micro-Generations as a way to rethink traditional demographics through a more consumer-centric lens. Our first presentation exploring micro-generational study, this session uncovers new ways to think about modern consumers, what motivates them, and how to more accurately target them.
Forecasting Micro-Generational Desire
Through an exploration of each of the 9 Micro-Generations' formative years, impactful global events, media and pop culture, attendees will walk away with a thorough understanding of who each group is today, and the trends relevant to them over the next 3-5 years.
