It's the final episode of season 3, and that means Chad and Miriam talk with BCD’s CEO Stephan Baars and CCO Mike Janssen. Nothing is off the table as the group digs into how 2025 has gone, market volatility, mergers, technology, innovation, what clients and the industry can expect from BCD in 2026 (and beyond), and a heartfelt message to colleagues and clients at the end. 

Thanks for connecting with us this season. We'll be taking a short break over the holidays to recharge. Stay tuned to BCD social media for season 4 announcements.
