The Insight250 list is published by MTab and Esomar. The judging panel chose the 250 winners across 46 countries based on criteria including professional experience, academic accomplishments, publication contributions, industry involvement, insight innovations, and sector accolades.

Mark Langsfeld, co-chair of the Insight250 judging panel and chief executive, mTab, said: “The focus of the Insight250 has always been to celebrate exceptional individuals who are elevating the insights and research industries around the world. It’s incredible how many people are making major contributions to how we gather data, analyse insights and understand today’s complex world.”
