Continuous foresight prioritizes ongoing, collaborative efforts to spot and analyze external change and disruptions, proving essential for agile strategy formulation in volatile settings.

Trends, which embody external forces like technological or social shifts, reflect market dynamics largely steered by evolving consumer behaviors and needs. ITONICS stands at the forefront, enabling businesses to adeptly scout for these weak signals and decode shifting consumer landscapes. Delve into how ITONICS is revolutionizing trendspotting.
