I’m Jamin. You're listening to the Happy Market Research Podcast. Actually you're seeing the Happy Market Research Podcast if you're joining us live today at the IIEX event. Today the show is being done in conjunction with IIEX’s podcast series and it is also going to be produced in our regular show feed wherever it is that you consume podcasts. The topic for today is the rise of Esports and how consumer insights are being used to make decisions. This is something I am really excited about as I’m a life-long gamer; been doing it since I was gosh, early days of Apple 2, Atari 2600 and now I’m 49-years-old still gaming with my kids, which is maybe a little bit embarrassing. I think I’m going to probably carry it with me to the grave. We’ve got two guests today that are joining us. Our first one is Laura Levy. Laura is a human factor’s psychologist specializing in how people interact and engage with technology. She started at the Institute for People and Technology and is a research director of Gaming and Esports Applied Research at Georgia Tech where she specializes in Esports research as you’ve probably already gathered, games, user research, AR, VR, and human computer interactions. Laura received her B. S. in zoology, which is super-interesting from the University of Florida, an M. S. in biology, and an M. S. in psychology from Georgia Tech and is expected to earn her PhD I think in six months, spring of 2021 from Georgia Tech.
