About Justien Marseille

“After the break, the young market researchers were browbeated by the eloquent Justien Marseille, who talked about ‘sense and non sense of trend analysis’ in response to a number of critical standpoints. The way she presented her story made the audience laugh. The content was very interesting, but her performance would not have been misplaced in a theatre too…” (From: ‘Survey’, November 2000).
