To attend this event, all guests must complete a short market research screener. This isn’t just a form — it’s the real deal. You’ll get a firsthand look at how participants are selected for paid research and may even qualify for a future study (with compensation up to $225+).

⏱ Takes 5–10 minutes 📍 Required for entry

✔️ We will verify completion in one of the following ways: – You’re on our attendee list with a completed survey – You show a screenshot of the “survey complete” confirmation – You complete the screener on-site before entry

🔔 To avoid delays at the door, we strongly recommend completing the screener in advance. If you haven’t, please arrive early to allow time for on-site completion.
