Research shows that #multisensory engagement, such as surface #haptics and scent #marketing, is important to consumers. This type of engagement allows for deeper interactions and stronger emotional attachment, which can lead to higher customer retention and lifetime value.

At #CannesLions2024, discussions about #AI and its future in the creative process took center stage. On the VSP Global Innovation Center Blog, Ruth Yomtoubian shared a few of the themes that coalesced for her during the conference, including the importance of incorporating #emotionalintelligence when using AI: "For AI to thrive in #marketing and #branding, it must incorporate emotional intelligence — the capability to recognize, understand, and manage emotions. AI Agents present a valuable chance to seamlessly (and consistently) weave brand voice, personality, and empathy into digital interactions, ultimately enhancing the consumer’s connection to the brand."

While the VSP Vision Innovation Challenge judges took time to deliberate during the final showcase in Chicago last week, Ruth Yomtoubian, head of the VSP Global Innovation Center, held a fireside chat with Brent Rasmussen, CEO of Visibly on his origin story, success in the vision care industry, and what makes the #visioncare industry so interesting. Here’s Brent’s #CallToAction for #entrepreneurs and #industryleaders in the space: "I work with hundreds of U.S. companies right now using our testing platform and I have a hard time finding another Ruth. If I go to a lot of our customers and say 'Who's your head of innovation? Who's looking at new things all the time?' They go, 'Well, what do you mean, Brent?' There are people out there—don't get me wrong—but there's very little collaboration amongst the industry about how can we move the vision care experience forward and how can unify these technologies together. I've seen a presentation from this group and another one from another team, but how do we bring these folks together? The one step that helped me out immensely was presenting at Bart Foster's first Optical Innovation Summit in Boulder, CO seven years ago. I met our two largest customers there, three of our investors there, and the leads and guidance from leaders at the event accelerated our business. More #collaboration just has to happen." #visioninnovation #VSP #eyecare #innovation
