Chicago, IllinoisLaura Schwartz Live is proud to announce that dynamic Emcee Laura Schwartz was chosen by NIQ to conduct an interview with successful comedian, former host of the Daily Show and advocate Trevor Noah for an audience of over 800 for their annual conference.

The 2023 Conference titled, “NIQ C360” centered around the theme “Pathways to Growth,” reflecting NIQ’s commitment to pave new trails toward purpose, define new inroads for innovation, create new bridges for collaboration, and help clients succeed in an ever-evolving market landscape.

After the Chief Operating Officer of NIQ, Tracey Massey opened the conference and before Laura interviewed Trevor, Laura took the stage to discuss one of her favorite and most impactful topics of the “Return on Experience.” Laura often speaks about both the quantification and qualification of how we assess our projects in business and moments in our lives on their Return on Investment and how she believes there is great value to also including the evaluation on the “Return on Experience.”

A focus on the Return on Experience, “ROE” is an intricate part of her signature keynote programs: ACTIVATE YOUR SUPERPOWER!” and EAT, DRINK & SUCCEED.
