The Global 30 Under 30 List 2023

The Significant Insights 30-Under-30 initiative celebrates the rising stars of the insights world. Our global panel of judges from top brands and agencies reviewed a huge number of inspiring nominations from 16 countries.

The Global 30-Under-30 List aims to recognise the research and insight industry’s exceptional young talent; showcase their achievements and reward their drive, creativity and passion for the sector and the world around them. All of this, making them ‘the ones to watch’ within the global research, data, analytics and insights industry.

And this year, to quote one judge, “the talent on offer was simply unbelievable”.

The judges really had their work cut out for them.

But eventually, only 30 individuals, from 11 countries, again, two thirds of them women, have claimed a place on the Global Significant Insights 30-Under-30 List, 2023.

Every year the Significant Insights Global 30-Under-30 judges hunt for those that not only stand out in their day-to-day roles but who, very importantly, have made a contribution and an impact to the wider industry, and/ or, who have used data and insights to help accelerate positive change in the world.

The Significant Insights Global 30-Under-30 seeks out the insight leaders, innovators, creators and thinkers, under 30 years of age, who are making big strides in the world of insights. This could be reflected in their day-to-day work for clients and/or stakeholders, or the influence and impact they have made at their organisation, and/or the wider research and insights industry, or through their use of data and insights to help accelerate positive change in the world.

And they had to be a member of the global research and insights community and 29 or younger on November 30th, 2023.
