WLUK Event – Everything you need to know about Global E-commerce
October 4, 2018 @ 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
What would you like to know about global e-commerce?
Global e-commerce (simply buying or selling over the internet) is becoming essential for all companies that want to “go global” and the partner agencies who support them. To capture a large share of this fast-growing e-commerce market and expand internationally, it’s important to understand the set-up, mechanics and challenges associated.
Don’t miss this Women in Localization UK event where we’ll take an in-depth look at e-commerce, as well as the role of localization (people, tools and technology), allowing brands and companies to scale up globally while considering different market needs. Our panel of experts will shed light on different strategies, platforms, technical requirements and priorities in terms of localization efforts.
You’ll come away with new insights and ideas for your professional development and get to meet and network with some of the smartest people in the localization industry, before and after the panel discussion.
