Summary

Engagement at scale

As new generations of consumers search for ways of “owning” their  purchases - from personalising products through to supporting bespoke “new” brands who can sculpt to order - digital solutions need to adapt to serve.Growing “artisan” brands need to learn how to industrialise their production, whilst large brands need to find better ways of customising “at scale”... to satisfy consumers’ desire to sit at the heart of the purchase, production, and personalisation process.Our event gathered experiences from brands who have tested “customisation at scale”, whilst also investigating true personalisation of the transaction process - from mass social engagement through to the issues that arise with customised configuration, production and returns.
