With the theme “Shape the Future”, the summit will be providing an opportunity to gather, connect, and share learning opportunities among business leaders and marketers from a variety of industries that have been using technology to build competitive advantages and sustainable business in the recent fierce environment.
The future of business in the technology era 4.0
Technology plays an important role in the survival and development of many businesses. Applying technology to the right people, in the right circumstances and at the right time will help businesses bring better service to their customers. Allan Thygesen, President of Google United States, said: “Utility support is a new war for business development.” As Google users are tending to search “now,” he has noticed a simultaneous increase in the way marketers connect with customers. For example, Wayfair, an e-commerce site specializing in selling furniture in the United States, has allowed customers to place a virtual version of the interior into their home for review before making a purchase decision. Technology has made the connection between businesses and customers more convenient.
Broadly speaking, in fact, businesses must face and respond to the changing and rapid development of technology in the 4.0 era. The story of the application of blockchain / AI / Internet of Things in advertising marketing, changes in customer approach, performance measurement, product innovation and the impact of technology to business and social, … will be shared and exchanged directly between the leaders of the big companies in Vietnam. The sharing of Alphabeta, Facebook SEA, Fossil, SuntoryPepsico, Active, … will surely bring participants new perspectives on business issues in the digital age.
Factors of building and developing a sustainable business
In addition to technological elements, leaders are still pondering on many other issues that help businesses grow sustainably, such as corporate culture and leadership styles, people, and so on. Dara Treseder, CMO of GE Ventures, said, “Today, brands and cultures are intertwined. The brand reflects the culture and culture that reflects the brand.”
The conference is also a place to capture more investment opportunities as well as how to successfully enter the business boat through the roundtable from CEOs of large enterprises in Vietnam.
