Details
Digital technology has only just begun to show its potential. Technology and the internet are helping to better connect the world - opening up opportunities, empowering ever more entrepreneurs to start and run businesses as never before, and providing access to the information, tools and networks to fulfil personal and career ambitions. At Amazon it’s always "day one".
During his talk, Amazon's UK country manager Doug Gurr will discuss how the digital revolution is eroding barriers to global retail and levelling the playing field, enabling businesses of all sizes, urban and rural, to boost their productivity and reach, on a global stage. In addition, he will explore what role the retail industry can play to empower UK plc with the skills and support needed to fulfil the opportunities the fourth industrial revolution provides.
