EPIC is a space where I can challenge my thought, get support for my practice, and learn new perspectives – all crucial aspects to growing as a research leader.

Heli Rantavuo

Head of Customer Insight, OP Financial

Being a member of the EPIC community is a profoundly stimulating experience. I have found a sense of belonging and a space for learning and sharing, and I have been consistently awed by the remarkable multidisciplinary work that makes EPIC what it is. It inspires me to approach my work with renewed vision and perspective.

Maintaining my EPIC membership for years has provided me with invaluable professional development content, enhancing my research skills and feeding my curiosity about emerging cultural phenomena.

Sylvia Long-Tolbert

Founder, Know More Marketing

EPIC is one of the most welcoming and inspiring professional communities out there. Curious folks asking big, hard questions and using the power of ethnography to make sense of a fast-changing world while building a supportive network.
