October will witness the biggest eCommerce expo outside London and the coming together of the leading online British businesses in the north.
On the 11th and 12th of the said month, more than 120 exhibitors and 4,000 visitors are expected to pack the event which is aptly dubbed as eCommerce Show North at EventCity in Manchester K-EXPO 2024.
Organised by Prolific North, Don’t Panic Events and UKFast, the event will focus on the growth of eCommerce businesses in the north and their strategies in turning their local brands into a global success.
Exhibitors will share breakthrough marketing tactics for retailers, tried-and-tested ways big data can boost revenues and expand customer base, and new software for information management solutions, amongst others.
Matt and I are going to be there too and are really looking forward to meeting people within their industry, to hear their stories and experiences and share ours as entrepreneurs as well.
Running an online business has its pains and joys, so this event is no doubt the perfect opportunity to work out fresh ideas that will enable businesses to continue to thrive in the face of challenges.
Talks on the future of UK eCommerce
The UK eCommerce market is going to double to 645 billion next year, and at the same time companies that invest in eCommerce can expect a 60% increase in revenue, according to industry experts.
To ensure you get a piece of the pie, you need to start preparing your business not tomorrow but today with the help of companies which built their success from the bottom up.
CEOs and influencers from leading eCommerce firms in the north are going to take to the stage at EventCity to share how multichannel retailing is going to contribute to that, especially mobile commerce which accounts for 30% of all eCommerce traffic.
If you have not established a mobile-ready website yet, thinking it’s just an option for your business which you can do without, perhaps you’ll have a change of heart once you hear the harsh truth straight from the horse’s mouth.
