CONCURRENT SESSIONS.
Beyond Borders: The Next Frontier in Global Ecommerce.
The fast growth of ecommerce has actually transformed the retail experience, moving customers away from conventional brick-and-mortar shops to a global digital market offering higher access to brand-new items and better rates. Cross-border buying and selling is also being sustained by a rapid rise in retail sales driven by social networks. By 2020, China will become the world’s largest market for offering items online, and international ecommerce sales are expected to double to some US $4 trillion. How can organizations ensure customer safety as a growing number of consumers acquire foreign products online? How are retail brands and SME’s using ecommerce innovations and best practices to grow their international presence and increase profits? What obstacles lie ahead as ecommerce takes hold throughout Asia and other emerging markets?
