Experts View: The Most Interesting Thing in eCommerce in 2016 (episode 082)

In 2016 the our Experts View episodes that we started the year with were some of our most popular episodes – so it was a no-brainer to create them again for you as we enter 2017.

We’ve got 2 “Experts View” shows for you –  in each I’ll be bringing you the opinions of some of the top people in eCommerce from around the world.

For this first show I asked a number of experts what they believe was the most interesting thing we saw in 2016.

It’s important to look back at 2016 and identify the breakthrough moments before we can look at what we should do in 2017 (that’s coming up in a couple of episodes time..).
