"The epNetwork is alive in Asia!"
On March 9-12 the fourth “empowering people. Onsite” took place for the first time in Asia, in Panaruban, Indonesia.
The training focused on “Market Research & Customer Insights” and was carried out with the support from Adelphi and IBEKA. The epOnsite took place at our network member IBEKA’s headquarter where we were received with great hospitality.

The participatory workshop sessions offered a two-fold approach. The first sessions provided a broad introduction into the different market research elements, methodologies and customer analysis. In the second part the epN members got to exercise a “reality check” of different theoretical claims. Thereby, they got to discover market assumptions and characteristics and discussed the relevant forces influencing their markets. Other topics of the workshop were customer segments, the identification of areas of improvement of products or services and the rating of the relevance of key products or service features.
The interactive sessions were followed by intensive feedback-rounds in which the participants presented their respective customer circles and concentrated on their supposed specific demands and expectations.
These were the experts on "Market Research & Customer Insights" of the "empowering people. Onsite" in Panaruban:
