Embracing a digital toolkit is no longer a question but a requirement for businesses to compete in today’s economy. Rapidly developing technology has the potential for just one key innovation to disrupt entire industries and set the new standard, far outperforming the traditional business model.

In 2015 the reality is that valuable information, to both businesses and the consumer, is readily available just a tap, swipe, or click away. Business are finding it necessary to take advantage of this by translating and integrating consumer data in real time to improve their own internal operations and create a direct connection to engage their audiences.

Join business experts to explore what is driving this digital trend, what industry-wide strategies we can anticipate seeing in the future, and how business leaders can reprioritize and create new leadership structures to succeed in the digital age.

Speakers Include:

Alexandra Hoefinger, Web Developer, Urban Outfitters
From adopting mobile point-of-sale (POS) units to using beacons to ping messages at shoppers who have downloaded the retailer's app, Urban Outfitters is constantly experimenting with new technology and integrating digital tools into its existing business model to set itself apart from other retailers.
