One of the standout features of the conference was the sheer diversity of perspectives. We heard from local thought leaders, global experts, and rising stars—all contributing to a mosaic of knowledge that reflected the richness of the Latin American region. The blending of business intelligence with cultural understanding made for a unique and valuable learning experience.
But beyond the content, what truly made this event a success was the sense of community. Attendees repeatedly mentioned how much they appreciated the opportunity to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and explore potential collaborations. Whether over coffee breaks, during workshops, or at our lively networking receptions, new connections were made and old friendships rekindled. For many, it was not just about what they learned, but who they met.
We’d also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the incredible student volunteers from Universidad del Pacífico, whose enthusiasm, professionalism, and dedication played a huge part in making the event run smoothly. From assisting with logistics to welcoming guests and supporting speakers, their contribution did not go unnoticed. It was inspiring to see the next generation of research and insights professionals in action—and we hope to see many of them again at future ESOMAR events!
Congratulations are also in order for our award winners: the Best Paper Award and the Best Presentation Award were both given to standout projects that exemplified excellence, creativity, and impact in our field. These recognitions are a testament to the high caliber of talent and innovation present in the LATAM region, and we celebrate all who shared their work on stage.
The city of Lima proved to be a spectacular host. Attendees enjoyed delicious Peruvian cuisine, took in the sights of this historic coastal capital, and experienced the warm hospitality that Peru is known for. The blend of local flavour and international insight created a conference atmosphere that was as memorable as it was meaningful.
