The approach is a human-centric process that shifts power back to the consumer to drive innovation for the business. We will share our experiences in the importance of customer insights as the foundation to building a brand, especially for new entry in a crowded marketplace.These will be illustrated through case studies of current brands that were homegrown in Japan, but have successfully gained entry to new markets with different needs and aspirations. The themes covered will be Human-centric design, Finding the Gap, and Localisation.
