Enteprise Mobility Practices In Retail – MoMo Event
Mobile Monday is back with a Business session on Enterprise Mobility practices in Retail Industry. Retail today has become one of the most lucrative & rapidly changing industries. On the one hand, the pace of change continues to ramp up and customer attention spans shorten. On the other hand the lines between old and new retail practices. Digital is bleeding into physical retail (and vice versa), the wallet is merging into the smartphone, global retailers are moving into local markets, manufacturers are becoming retailers (and retailers manufacturers)…and on it goes. The nice, neat dividing lines of times past have been obliterated forever. The result is a gloriously messy, but positively exciting retail landscape.
