Dinner

March 24, 2022

Summary

A dinner for the MACH curious

The global shift towards a more agile technology stack across digital channels has accelerated inside the last 24 months.

Almost every day the opportunity for eCommerce growth expands, but so do the challenges to realise that opportunity. From traffic generation through to content engagement and conversion - every channel now has its own set of competition, and Google's algorithm continues to force faster page load times, whilst consumers now demand a seamless brand experience.

At the same time, your online business requires faster site changes, increased functionality and an almost constant set of development to keep pace. At our eCommerce dinner, we invited industry professionals for an evening of discussion about the next generation of tools to help stay relevant, why we keep hearing about MACH, the pressure to keep pace and how to stay relevant to consumers.

At Commerce Futures we encourage full and frank debate across these important subjects, and have been running dinners for enterprise leaders for the last 24 months to do just that.
