This webinar explores how participative AI transforms qualitative research by enabling smarter design\, deepening and quantifying human understanding\, and co-created outputs that drive real business outcomes. You’ll learn how leading organizations are using AI not just to “scale qual\,” but to elevate its impact across the business. \nIn this presentation\, we will discuss: \nWhy “AI moderation” and “qual at scale” are outdated goals – and what truly matters for insight leaders today.How a cognitive AI collaborator can support end-to-end research: from designing smarter studies to surfacing holistic insights bridging what people say with how they behave through multi-modal AI. How compounding insights and AI-assisted co-creation accelerate decision-making and increase stakeholder relevance. All registrants will receive a link to the online recorded video\, so you can view the webinar later if more convenient. \nNiels Schillewaert\,PhD \nHead of Research and Methodologies\, Conveo.ai. \nNiels combined entrepreneurship and commercial research with academic research throughout his career.
