WEBINAR – E-COMMERCE IN CHINA
E-commerce is changing the way people shop across the world. Nowhere is this truer than in China, where billions of internet users, a rapidly expanding digital payment market, and hugely popular online shopping festivals have helped the nation gain a 40% share in the global e-commerce market… in little over 10 years.
Join us on September 25th, when we’ll be joined by China expert Ed Sander, to discuss how China has grown its e-commerce market so quickly.
