VANCL is China's leading internet-based apparel retailer. This detailed case study examines VANCL's digital marketing, branding, operations and financing.
Though a market leader in China, VANCL remains largely unknown in the outside world. To date, much of what is written about VANCL is in Chinese, and much of this material omits important aspects of VANCL’s business model and operations.
There are several reasons for digital marketers and other eCommerce observers to take note of VANCL:
*VANCL will receive a multi-billion dollar IPO on the NASDAQ within the next 24 months
*VANCL currently ships to over 80 countries globally and is likely to emerge as a global apparel and internet competitor over the next two to five years
*VANCL’s product and marketing strategies are highly innovative and provide valuable case studies for other e-retailers
The following presentation draws together public research and comment to provide the English language reader with an “advanced primer” on VANCL and the Chinese market. It should be of use to digital marketers, electronic retailers and financial analysts beginning coverage of the firm.

Charitable giving trends with mobile technologiesX.commerce
Savvy merchants and developers are integrating charitable causes into their mobile strategies to achieve strategic advantages, and non-profits are using mobile technology to reach new audiences and increase the funds they raise. We will address ways businesses can incorporate these causes with mobile strategies to drive both social impact and business objectives, and how non-profits themselves are innovating in the mobile space.
With mobile cloud computing come efforts to simplify its development. Creating apps for the mobile cloud is significantly different than developing apps for a native smartphone platform. This session is about design and architecture considerations, the essential tools and technologies, and the pitfalls to avoid when building mobile cloud apps.
Scanning barcodes and QR codes with mobile devices is booming. It’s a frictionless way to connect the online and offline worlds, and this discussion will cover the technology and best practices for leveraging code scanning in your mobile apps. We will introduce the RedLaser SDK as well.
Having a mobile presence is easy. What’s hard is deciding what to include, what it should look like, and how to build it in the first place. These are best practices, design tips, and resources for mobile sites and apps.
Creative complex commerce: Respecting the Customers’ brand while integrating ...X.commerce
New technology drives the need for new experiences. In this session, we’ll look at what the rise of open source means for retailers, and how retailers can take advantage of new technology such as Magento to deliver innovation. We’ll also discuss ways to enhance the user journey—from social to local and mobile commerce— while respecting the brand and avoiding lookalike sites. We’ll bring it all together through a case study from the B2B world that pushes the boundaries of traditional commerce.
Trending now and in the future: Social commerceX.commerce
Many companies are trying to tap into the 750 million potential shoppers on Facebook—and missing. That’s because social commerce is about more than just putting up a Facebook storefront and adding a Like button to your products. Social commerce vendors, brands, sellers, suppliers and developers need to know about the following: social shopping trends; social data integration with traditional ecommerce analytics; why Taste Graphs will overtake Social Graphs in influencing purchasing decisions, and how Facebook may emerge as a dominant micropayments platform.
The near future of real web applicationsX.commerce
There is a lot of noise being made about HTML5 as the new web technology to use and markets for apps as the best way to sell products and distribute applications to our end users. In reality there is not much new about it - all we are doing is treating the web as a distribution and sharing platform and browsers as the software to run our applications on. In this talk Christian Heilmann of Mozilla shows how in the near future application installation and in-app payments can happen on the most distributed market there is - the internet and through your browser. You will see how the technologies we build web sites in got an upgrade to allow us to build light-weight and focused applications that allow our end users to reach their goals faster and in a more re-usable fashion than with traditional ecommerce. Browsers and hardware are becoming more powerful each day, it is time to use that power in a sensible manner.
Proudly Found Elsewhere: The Open Source BonanzaX.commerce
This is the Open Source Era! Over the past decade, software isn’t just something to make money from, but something to make money with. How are some of the highest growth businesses in the world using open source software and network services to fuel their grand ambitions?
Building immersive experiences: Usability you can really useX.commerce
Combine the finer points of design with existing development know-how to craft user experiences for multiple platforms. Work through a real-life design challenge and apply design principles, patterns, and a proven process to create an immersive experience. This is an interactive workshop to jump start your next project.
The mighty cloud draws businesses and developers who seek its agility and productivity. But which type of cloud is best? We moved eBay Marketplace, a major eCommerce site, from a traditional infrastructure to a cloud model. We will present the strategic, technical and cost factors we weighed when deciding between cloud versus automation, and porting applications versus rewriting them. We will explain why we ended up with a hybrid: developing our own internal cloud while leveraging the massive infrastructure of public cloud providers.
If the web has taught us anything, it is that open systems, portability, and choice drive innovation. Similarly, the cloud era will be fueled by open technologies and a broad ecosystem. The OpenStack community was founded last year and has since become the fastest-growing open source cloud project, attracting hundreds of contributing developers and more than 100 participating companies. We will discuss how OpenStack is ending cloud lock-in by allowing enterprises and other service providers to run the same code that powers the Rackspace cloud. With a common platform, developers and businesses will be able to move applications among different clouds or their internal infrastructure. We will also go over use cases and options to consume OpenStack.
In 2011, we’re going “frictionless.” We will demo eBay’s latest seller innovations for seamless shipping. Our favorite new APIs enable you to scan any item with a mobile device and the recommended match for weight, dimension and service requirements populates the interface and even provides labels and tracking numbers.
Buyers appreciate the catalog experience; they certainly don’t miss the avalanche of item listings. Sellers also like providing catalog experiences; their items get more exposure. With eBay’s built-in product definitions, sellers don’t need to take valuable time writing product descriptions or item specifics or even providing photos—eBay’s built-in product definitions take goods quickly to market. New this year: creating your own product listing within the eBay catalog using UPC codes and brand MPNs.
Imagine a commerce world where thematic and seasonal stores could automatically pop up and then disappear with minimal editorial work. Here we talk about the underlying platform that enables mining large-scale user behavior and query data to set up stores automatically based on themes of interest, and emerging and buzz-creating topics. We will describe the science and tools to build experiences that would drive commerce through custom experience and social media, and help sellers, shoppers, and the enthusiasts.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
