Our Dallas Research Conference starts with a keynote by Trend Hunter CEO Jeremy Gutsche, who will outline the 6 Patterns of Opportunity and the 18 Megatrends that can help you find overlooked ideas and hidden opportunities. This will be followed by a series of talks on the key trends and consumer insights that are shaping the way consumers live, work, play, and shop. Finally, the day will end with an interactive afterparty, where you will be able to relax, network, and connect with like-minded innovators.

Inspiring, full day of reviewing how the world is changing around us, enlightening us on how important it is to understand trends and include those in our day-to-day business.”
