Cultural Intelligence Sprint
See what’s shaping your category—before your competitors do.
Investment: $10,000
Duration: 3 business days
Format: Virtual collaboration
Best for Brands preparing to scale, reposition, or enter new markets
What You Get
A 3-day deep dive into the behavioral, social, and tech forces moving your market. You’ll leave with a focused roadmap that shows where momentum is building—and how to position ahead of it.
The Problem This Solves
You're facing one or more of these challenges:
Strategic blindness: making calls on last year’s data or gut feel
Competitive sameness: everyone is running the same playbook
Market timing: unsure whether to launch, pivot, or wait
Cultural misalignment: brand feels out of step with customers
Trend confusion: hard to separate signal from noise
Investor questions: need proof your thesis tracks with reality
