Curion, a full-service product and packaging consumer insights firm, acquired Ravel in November 2021, an insights company specializing in front-end innovation insights. As part of Curion’s goal to fuel end-to-end product narratives spanning from innovation to post-launch, the company welcomed Justin Doran as VP of Insights on April 25th, 2022. As VP of Insights, Justin will leverage his uniquely diverse skill set and partner with clients to deliver unparalleled success as the insights team leader.
Justin’s 15 years of experience leading the strategy and insights team at Well’s Enterprises and Tyson Foods brings a wide range of expertise to the table, from end-to-end product commercialization and innovation to consumer insights and analytics. His background perfectly positions him to merge Curion’s cutting-edge methodologies with Ravel’s for consumer empathy and understanding.
“I am beyond excited to join Curion,” says Doran. “I look forward to leveraging my deep Insights experience to assist our clients in driving their businesses forward & inturn, growing Curion’s Insights portfolio.”
As well as collaborating alongside the rest of the leadership team, Justin will work alongside clients to leverage holistic insight strategies into long-term growth. Working closely with Sean Bisceglia, Curion CEO, and the GSD and CSD teams, Justin will work to develop workflow and processes aligned with the evolving needs of both sales and insights-related functions. With Justin by its side, Curion is poised to fully capitalize on its acquisition of Ravel and continue growing exponentially throughout 2022.
