eCommerceNG "Maximize the Potential of Mobile Commerce" (3)EmpathyBroker
This is the third and final presentation at eCommerce NG event "Maximize the potential of mobile commerce" which took place in Leeds on 19-Apr-2013.
This presentation was by Andrew Lee, Director at Reevoo.
Criteo’s analysis of shopping data from Q4 2015 demonstrates that mobile leaders grew their share of transactions faster than average in a world where mobile devices are at the center of the connected consumer.
Top retailers see double the growth in mobile’s share of transactions, widening the gap with average retailers in the space.
Nearly four-in-ten transactions occurred on multiple devices and were completed on a mobile device almost a third of the time.
Dedicated shopping apps dwarf the mobile web at all points on the path to purchase, from browsing products to the sale itself.
Japan, UK and South Korea continue to lead the globe in mobile transactions, and smartphones are driving that growth.

How Online consumer behaviour influences online and offline sales
Online became the most important medium where consumers learn about brands and products, also in Belgium. The role of online goes thus way beyond driving ‘ecommerce’ but is directly affecting in-store sales.

The connected shopper. Fallacy fad or reality?Simon Etchells
Does the connected shopper really exist? Is ominchannel a trend or the future?
As the line between physical and digital begins to blur, what is the role, relevance and importance of the various channels in “omni channel”? With examples, case studies and insights I explore what the connected shopper paradigm means for now and the future.
The European apparel market is undergoing a period of profound transformation. The impact of Covid-19 sent shockwaves throughout the global economy, dislocating international supply chains and reshaping the way consumers live, work, communicate and shop.

What’s the outlook for retail in 2015? What can you do to meet rapidly changing consumer expectations? What are your peers doing? Find out in the slides from our live webinar, hosted by Paula Rosenblum, managing partner of Retail Systems Research (RSR), and Pete Zaballos, vice president of product and marketing at SPS Commerce.
There are many tools in the retailer’s digital kit. Between apps, beacons, kiosks, wifi, smart lighting and tablet-wielding associates, brands have more ways than ever to engage with and influence customers while they’re in stores. Today though, we're all about digital displays.
We all know that the same survival of most Retail businesses, especially in the Fashion&Luxury field, is now at risk but why?
Is Covid-19 the real cause of this disruption or is this pandemic more of an accelerator of these radical changes?
But, most importantly, what can our firms do to tackle the most dangerous crisis they have ever faced and reinvent their business model?
I have tried to answer all these questions with a deep analysis of the Fashion Retail Business and the suggestion of a set of solutions that will help both SMEs and traditional Retailers to bridge the gap with their competitors transforming this crisis into an opportunity.

As the immediacy of receiving the products you need becomes a non-issue in e-commerce due to increasingly smart logistics, the main challenge left is the desire to try or feel the products first. This might be the simplest explanation for the rise of omni-channel, where the online, mobile or social channels, and brick & mortar stores, are mixed into a seamless shopping experience, each leveraging its own virtues and supporting the other channels at the same time. E-commerce is not, nor has it ever been, merely a ͞sales channel͟, and companies have adapted to this notion. ͞Don’t think of e-commerce as a channel. It’s a way for consumers to research, to buy, to experience brands and then, ultimately, to have them have fulfilled͟, says Coca-Cola North America’s EVP Sandy Douglas. E-commerce, therefore, is becoming a component of omni-channel commerce. Brick & mortar competitors establish digital presence, and previously pure-play digital competitors establish a physical presence. Recent acquisitions have established the market’s dynamics even further – e.g., Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods Market, and Walmart’s acquisition of Jet.com and Bonobos. More retailers today use stores as display spaces that support the need to try out and try on prior to purchasing online.

La presentazione del Dott. Mario Bini e della Dott.ssa Virginia Vassallo affronta il tema della digitalizzazione nel mercato Business-to-business, con un focus sull’e-commerce utilizzato per l’export.
China’s rise as a global leader in ecommerce has been nothing less than stunning. This year, online retail sales are expected to swell to $1.5 trillion, representing a quarter of China’s total retail
sales volume, and more than the retail sales of the ten next largest markets in the world – combined.
The retail industry is very competitive. More and more companies are competing for smaller and smaller margins – red markets. The solution is to swim away from the competition, make the competition irrelevant and find a wide-open space and create: a blue ocean. Is an omnichannel experience the way to blue oceans?
In iClick's last chapter, we have explicitly focused on the characteristics and evolution of Chinese eCommerce users, together with the new demand and online users’ preference for eCommerce sites. In this final chapter, we provide strategies and solutions that help Chinese eCommerce practitioners to face the challenges today's digital landscape.

The ROI of Empowering Associates Through In-Store MobilityG3 Communications
Today’s consumers have more choices and more control than ever before. They will not tolerate less-than-stellar customer service, because they can reach into their pockets and check product reviews, prices and even purchase nearly any product in real time from an online retailer.
So what can retailers do to up their game when it comes to customer experience? By equipping store associates with mobile devices used to build relationships, not simply process transactions, retailers can have a significant impact on transaction size, conversions and even overall traffic, leading to incremental increases in sales.
In this upcoming webinar, Scott Pearson from Retaligent and Danya Rielly from Raymark will discuss the ways retailers can use mobile technology to improve store operations, boost associate productivity and empower every store associate to provide outstanding levels of customer service. Topics will include: clienteling, mobile POS and a focus on the ROI and competitive advantage that specialty retailers can attain by employing mobile clienteling.
As specialist advisers to the marketing communications and technologies industry, we are uniquely positioned to ensure that we are continually on top of key trends in this rapidly evolving landscape.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
