SINGAPORE, Nov 13, 2018 - (ACN Newswire) - Retail and digital experts, investors, tech experts and 200 CXOs from some of the biggest brands will come together on 21 Nov at Marina Bay Sands, aiming to empower business leaders with the latest business and consumer strategies and uncover how technology is fundamentally transforming the e-commerce, startup and retail ecosystem in Southeast Asia (SEA).
With APAC's 2 billion-strong internet users growing by 8% annually, the region's digital economy is projected to top US$1.12 trillion by 2021. Maya Hari, VP Asia Pacific for Twitter and #ready2018 keynote, will speak on the preferences of the Millennial consumer who would make up most of these users. Recognising the trends, experts will share views on the impact of an evolving connected environment on businesses and suggest ways in which brands can become consumer ready.
"As consumers, businesses and governments continually adapt to a digital world, the desire for tech-enabled solutions that improve traditional transaction methods, online business and financial services is proliferating," said Aneesh Reddy, Co-Founder and CEO of Capillary Technologies. "At #ready2018, we bring together speakers who have not only thrived in digital transformation but are also driving this change from the front. They are passionate about not just growth, but about building a better, easier, more vibrant future."
