“We need to get back to classic marketing – what matters to our audience is a must. Even those people who don't ‘buy into' sustainability – up to 70% of them are actually engaged in sustainable behaviours – they just don't label it as sustainable….” In this episode were joined by Denise Hicks, Global Climate Lead at strategy and insights consultancy, C-Space. We were particularly interested in a very soon to be published piece of research titled, ‘The S Word'. Denise shares insights from the research findings, highlighting the ‘dysfunctional love triangle' that exists between brands, their stakeholders and regulations and the tensions and frictions which are causing trust issues. We explore some of the key highlights from the research (due out January 2025), Denise reveals, “consumers are frustrated, the problem is stuff – there is too much stuff and brands / manufacturers need to start taking responsibility”. She also talks about, “the increasing amount of skepticism at all level at the ways the S word is used for commercial gain”. Denise shares some brilliant examples of brands who are showing up in this space and engaging with their customers however, whilst they have sustainability high up on their agendas, they aren't leading with it – rather they are leading with good old fashion marketing tactics around what benefits their customers. The fact they are also sustainability focused is an added benefit. Denise explains, “the need to get back to classic marketing – what matters to our audience is a must. Even those people who don't ‘buy into' sustainability – up to 70% of them are actually engaged in sustainable behaviours – they just don't label it as sustainable.” Sustainability paralysis is very real, the need for strong listening, insights and learning about what truly matters to audiences has never been greater. This episode is a MUST LISTEN TO for all Marketers….packed with plenty of food for thought! Tune in and listen as we talk to Denise about: The importance of research. Sustainability paralysis and why it is very real. Why it is so important to understand the views of everybody and where they are at. The need to drive mutual benefit and work together collectively. How regulation plays an important part - but we can't just wait for it, all stakeholders need to keep moving forwards. Why brands / Marketers need to be asking - is sustainability a big part of our identity as a brand? The need to meet your audiences where they are at and focus on what matter to them – elements which aren't necessarily sustainability related. What it means to behave more responsibly and asking what's the role of responsible products and services in achieving a ‘better life'.

I'm so excited to announce that with this episode we have hit a new milestone and that is #300 episodes of The VentureFizz Podcast!!! Did you know that my first interview was published 5 years ago, so I am blown away to reach this milestone. Starting a podcast is not necessarily hard, but keeping up with it is certainly one of the trickiest parts. I believe that the key criteria for a successful, long standing podcast is that the host needs to be genuinely interested in the topic that is being discussed. It goes without saying that I am fascinated by the journey of building startups and I consider myself to be incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to interview so many amazing entrepreneurs and investors. I want to thank them all for taking the time to share their stories and advice with our audience. So, for Episode #300, I couldn't think of a better guest than Diane Hessan - Entrepreneur, Investor, Board Member, and Columnist. Diane has accomplished so much through out her career and during this interview she shares so many great stories from each step along the way including building Communispace (now called C Space) which was the first company to leverage social media for consumer insights. We had a lot of ground to cover, so we discuss a lot including: * Diane's background story growing up in Pennsylvania and why she completed her undergrad at Tufts in three years, plus the story of her very unique application to Harvard Business School. * Her career path as a Brand Manager for General Foods and later rising through the ranks at The Forum Corporation. * The full story of Communispace and how the company pivoted and disrupted the market research industry which led to an acquisition by Omnicom. * Authoring a book and becoming a nationally recognized expert on the American voter. * Serving on the Board of Directors at companies like Panera Bread, Brightcove, Eastern Bank, and others. * What it's like giving a commencement address. * Saying “yes” and the importance of serendipity. * And so much more! Ok quick side note, as you know this is Episode #300. This means we have quite the library of interviews with entrepreneurs and investors in the tech industry. I interview legends like Diane who are wildly successful, but I also interview first time entrepreneurs, as I like to provide insights and advice for entrepreneurs at different stages. So, if you haven't explored our full catalogue, you can go to venturefizz.com/podcast or any of the major streaming players like Spotify, Apple, Google Play, Soundcloud, and others. I hope you find these interviews useful, as there are so many great lessons learned!

Salient Ventures CEO Diane Hessan has always wanted to “lead something big,” as she shares in the latest episode of PNC C-Speak. That desire was the impetus for leaving her role with a small startup and founding Communispace, now known as C Space, in Boston. These days, she leads angel investment firm Salient Ventures in its efforts to support early-stage companies that show a lot of promise.Hessan's embrace of startups, and their inherent risks, stems from her happy, secure childhood. “I just asked myself (back then), what's the worst thing that could happen? And my worst-case scenario is that I would be back in Norristown, Pennsylvania,” a prospect she didn't mind, she says. Hessan has encouraged other startup entrepreneurs to consider their worst-case scenarios — and still pursue opportunities. A quintessential example of authentic leadership, Hessan fervently believes in leading people in ways that demonstrate you care about them, and the importance of seeking out mentors for guidance along the entrepreneurial journey.

This prevents company leadership from making necessary changes, and prevents people from feeling fulfilled, recognized, and included at work. At AllVoices, we want to change that by providing a completely safe, anonymous way for people to report issues directly to company leaders.

C Space CEO Jessica DeVlieger and Kisha Payton, head of the company's DEI Think Tank, walk us through their journey in the wake of the pandemic and Black Lives Matter. Their workplace program no longer checks a box or offers a bandage. Rather, Jessica has taken the trauma of George Floyd's murder and used it as a springboard to make C Space a model for meaningful change. She and Kisha share their experience in starting difficult conversations and the internal work that had to be done before the company could even start to think about promulgating a DEI agenda among clients. They have put in place systems to advance authentic understanding and programs with actual teeth when it comes to things like hiring. Most of all, Jessica says, there is a firm, bold, ongoing commitment to making space for marginalized voices to be heard. Operating from a place of respect and communication makes good business sense, but at C Space, it's also personal; something is woven daily into the culture's core values.

Siobhan was part of the early team at Communispace, now known as C Space, which was a big win for the Boston tech scene. The company scaled aggressively and was acquired by Omnicom in 2011. Siobhan joined MassChallenge in 2016 as its Chief Operating Officer and was promoted to CEO last year. MassChallenge is a global, zero-equity accelerator that was established in 2009, shortly after the financial meltdown. Needless to say, the economy was in a very tough spot and the outlook was bleak for startups. It took two visionaries - John Harthorne and Akhil Nigam - with a bold belief that they could create an accelerator that would award $1M to startups. There were definitely skeptics out there, including myself, but they pulled it off and the impact has been extraordinary. MassChallenge has over 2,400 alumni startups that have raised over $6.2B in funding and have gone on to generate over $3B in revenue and create over 157,000 jobs! In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * Siobhan's background and how she got involved with Communispace. * The full lifecycle story behind the growth of Communispace to its acquisition and beyond. * A deep dive into the history of MassChallenge and how the program operates. * Advice for founders when applying to MassChallenge and how they decide which companies to accept. * And so much more.

Recorded live in Miami, Jamin Brazil interviews Anders Bengtsson, CEO of Protobrand. We hope you enjoy this mini series taking you into the minds of some of the most influential CEOs in Market Research. Find Anders Online: LinkedIn https://www.protobrand.com/ [00:02] Beautiful morning here in Miami.  CEO Summit, Insights Association. Very excited.  I’ve got Anders Bengtsson. Did I say it even remotely correctly? [00:11] Yeah, like sort of.  [laughs] [00:16] Of Protobrand.  Tell us a little bit about what you guys do.   [00:19] Protobrand is a boutique research firm, full-service research firm, technology-enabled, helping companies to uncover how people think at a deep level about brands, ads, and new products.  So, I’m not just focusing on the functional side of things but the emotional, the symbolic, the experiential. So, when we talk about System 1, the automatic brain (the non-conscious brain), that’s where we have technique and measurements for uncovering those. [00:47] How do people work with you?  Do you have like a survey system?  Or what is the actual function? [00:55] Yes, our technology platform is called Meta4 Insights.  And that’s a technology platform. You can think of it as a survey platform that allows you to do a quantitative survey on line bit with advanced System 1 measurements.  It actually gives you both data that is immediately quantifiable but we also collect data that is text data. So think data that would normally be collected in a face-to-face interview can now be collected online.  Then we quantify that data with AI-powered text analytics. [01:26] Interesting.  So, there’s definitely the sentiment, kind of the NLP element integrated in.   [01:35] Yeah, you get sentiment.  So coding of large amounts of text data is still a semi-automated, like a semi-manual process, if you will.  There are analysts that are involved: they’re looking at what themes emerge and things that belong. So it’s not just a one-click button yet, and I don’t know if text analytics ever will.  But at this stage, it helps us code large data sets very precise from hundreds or thousands of respondents and identify salient themes, the sentiment, and the meaning behind it. [02:06] Yes, I mean it’s interesting Microsoft had their announcement of the support behind Augmented Intelligence, the new kind of AI framework where we thought of AI as solving all the problems and automating everything but really it’s doing part of it really well.  A human being has to go in and finish the job. [02:24] We’re not there yet where things are fully automated.  I think… so what we’re doing right now is to leverage automation and AI to the extent it’s possible without compromising the outcomes and to still make outcomes meaningful and help decision-making. [02:40] So, where are you guys based?   [02:43] In Boston. [02:45] Boston.  Perfect, I can tell by your accent.   [02:46] [laughs] Yeah, my Swedish Boston accent. [02:51] So, CEO Summit, day 3.  What are your thoughts? [02:57] It’s been two great days, and I’m looking forward to the third day.  Lots of great networking with like-minded and not like-minded CEOs. We learn from each other.  And I think it’s been… The speakers have been really great and really making me think about my job and where I want to take Protobrand and make me thinking in different ways about that.  So, that’s always helpful. [03:25] Yeah, do you have a specific take-away so far? [03:27] I think the take-away is that some things haven’t changed that much.  If I go back to Day 1, Diane Hessan from C-Space talked about when she launched the company and how, at first, it was just a technology that she wanted companies to subscribe to.  Then she found out that she had to build services around it. I think that’s still to this day very much true. Corporate clients in America are not ready for software in market research.  Software-enabled services. Services are part of it.

[00:22] Ok, oh, wow.  Well, thank you for bringing me here.  I know we were just hanging out near the pool area, and you grabbed me, “Hey, come talk for a bit.”  And happy to do so. I’m actually a native; I’m from Miami; it’s my hometown. Raised… [00:39] That’s awesome.   [00:40] Yeah, yeah.  Always great to be back, and it’s my first time at the Insights CEO Summit.  So excited to be here. Prodege – So, we operate several different business units, but, since we’re at a market research event and I’m responsible for the market research business at Prodege.  We are an online sample provider, data-collection provider, and again so excited. Thank you for having me. [01:05] So, CEO Summit 2019.  This is Day 1, right? What are some of your big take-aways?   [01:13] Yes, so what I really enjoyed and I think that some of the other events don’t necessarily capture the following component.  I loved hearing people’s stories about their businesses and how it got started and the pain they went through and challenges and what they had to overcome.  Oftentimes, we look at businesses that are already established and giants. People don’t realize that it was zero to one at some point. At some point, they had to go from zero to one.  And sharing that is very inspiring. Diane was fantastic; Michael did a great job. So, for me, that was fantastic. [01:48] That was Michael McCrary from PureSpectrum and Diane from C-Space? [01:53] Correct. [01:53] Right?  C-Space now owned by Omnicom, I believe. [01:56] Yes. [01:57] So, Prodege is a big company, a really big company.  You guys have had a tremendous amount of success. How long have you been there? [02:04] I’ve been here almost nine years. [02:06] Have you guys had any struggles?  Maybe there’s an opportunity for you to tell us a little bit about how you coped during a difficult time in the business. [02:14] Yeah, I think the struggles that I personally had within the business and the business had was actually the opportunity.  So, when we actually first decided that we’re going to make a play within the market research industry and become a sample provider, a lot of naysayers, “No, no, you can’t.”  I actually saw that as an opportunity. Let me elaborate on that for a minute. So, I happened to stumble upon the industry. I wasn’t necessarily… I haven’t been doing this for 20 years; it’s just a few years.  And the thing that really inspired me personally was when I attended some of the industry events. And speakers got up to present something that sounded somewhat innovative; the reaction from the audience was negative, was received as negative.  That was my perception, whether true or not. It just didn’t seem like the industry was embracing new tactics and innovation. That’s when for me the lightbulb moment. And, again, it’s an opportunity but a struggle because you have to overcome that barrier if a lot people are not necessarily embracing opportunities. [03:34] I love that.  So, how did you overcome it? [03:37] I think it’s pretty simple.  I know that people look for big answers when it comes to that.  If you have a strong product, you can overcome anything. [03:46] Love it. [03:46] It’s as simple as that. [03:47] Do you remember one of the early customers?  Who it was? [03:50] Yes, I’m not sure if they would want to share their name on it.   But, once we had our first customer, it really went very quickly.
