Had a great time with the London research community at the last Learners Road to Research Week before the main event in May. Between hosting two dinners, a happy hour with Maze and Marvin, and attending a roundtable, it's been a packed 72 hours. I heard a lot of what I expect as a panel provider: quality respondents, fraud, and niche reach are still big challenges. But what stood out more was how powerful and self-sufficient teams are becoming with AI in their toolkit. From data cleaning to research repositories, teams are building more in-house than ever. This means the bar for vendors is rising quickly, but I'm excited to see how we, and the industry, adapt for the better.

While my trip to London was short, it sure was memorable. Judd, Dalia, and Emma were incredible hosts and leaders for the event, and I met so many wonderful people I've only ever seen on Zoom before. We even had folks fly in from Berlin, Paris, and Zurich! This was a big moment for Learners, it was the first time we really got to meet the incredible research community in Europe. London - you have some many wonderful research leaders, and I'm excited to spend more time there soon! And of course, none of this would be possible without the incredible support of our title sponsor Maze, as well as Dialogue AI, Ipsos in US, Riley, Marvin, Alida, Outset, and Terac. Thank you all 🫶 Until next time, see you at Research Week!
