You're listening to the Happy Market Research Podcast. The next set of episodes are conversations I had at this year's Corporate Researchers Conference or CRC. This is put on by the Insights Association in Orlando, Florida. I had quite a few interesting conversations highlighting specific companies that exhibited this year as well as a couple of speakers, Wells Fargo, IBM, etc. I hope you have a really good rest of your day and enjoy these short episodes. [00:31] Hi, this is Jamin. You are listening to Happy Market Research Podcast. My guest today is Naira Musallam PhD and co-founder of SightX, one of my absolute favorite companies in the industry right now. Welcome to the Happy Market Research Podcast. [00:47] Thank you for having me and thanks for the shout-out. [00:50] Yeah, of course. Well, thanks for creating technology that is adding a ton of value to the market research space. Tell us a little bit about SightX. [00:58] Yes, So, SightX came about to solve for the problem that many in this space experience, and that is one for the fragmentation. The idea that you have to rely on multiple tools to be able to go from collection to cleaning, to formatting, to restructuring, to uploading into another platform. We thought we can do a little bit better by streamlining the process one. So, it is a technology that fits for the needs of 2019 and to also solve for the issue of expertise. The world that we live in really expect everybody nowadays in the space to be experts in what they're doing, to get it right, to get it deep, to get it fast with the massive amount of data. And so, how do you do that? Like how do you deliver better, faster, deeper with outdated technology? So, we said we're going to just develop a technology that enables people to deliver on these expectations. [02:28]
