The Human Advantage Conference 2026: Navigating a complex world through
Behavioural Science, AI and Human Intelligence
Paris, October 15, 2026 – The Human Advantage Conference 2026, proudly supported by Ipsos, brought together leading researchers, business leaders and experts from around the world for two days of live discussions on how behavioural science, human intelligence and artificial intelligence can help organizations navigate an increasingly complex world.
Held on 1-2 October 2026, the event delivered more than 20 hours of insight and debate, exploring the major transformations shaping the future of work, leadership, innovation, democratic trust, consumer behaviour and decision-making.
One of the conference’s defining strengths was the exceptional calibre of its speakers. The programme featured internationally recognised figures from academia, business, and public policy, including Nobel Prize-winning economist Philippe Aghion, alongside renowned experts such as Cass Sunstein (Harvard Law School), Iris Bohnet (Harvard Kennedy School) and Olivier Sibony (HEC). Participants also benefited from perspectives shared by senior executives from some of the world’s most influential organisations, including the OECD, Google, Danone, Unilever, L’Oréal, Mastercard, UBS, Sanofi and Nissan, creating a unique platform where cutting-edge research met real-world leadership and business experience.
Spearheaded by Eric Singler, the talented founder and mastermind behind these conferences, Ipsos experts also actively contributed throughout the event as panellists and moderators, sharing research-based perspectives and facilitating discussions on societal, technological and business challenges.
Kelly Beaver, CEO of Ipsos, said "Understanding people has never been more important. The Human Advantage Conference highlighted how scientific rigor, behavioural science, human intelligence and artificial intelligence can complement one another, helping organizations and society move beyond assumptions, make better decisions and create impact where it matters most. A special thank you to all our speakers and moderators for sharing their expertise and insights, and to all attendees for their active participation, which helped make the event a truly valuable and inspiring forum for discussion and exchange.”
