The Hundred Conference

London

Conference

May 23, 2023

Summary

A community conference for the eCom front-line

Pop your head into the boardroom and you’ll see signs that each member is feeling the turbulence. Seatbelt lights are on, the board have clipped in, and they’re looking to online to guide them through. The digital leaders responsible are looking for guidance of their own in turn.

Savvy spending is the flavour of 2023. As online (once again) gets tougher, our digital leader friends tell us that to invest they need certainty. Every. Penny. Counts.

What can you do now, to propel digital tomorrow?

The Hundred is a place to be observant, make connections, and learn. Because when people like you come together and share – the knowledge, the value – will drive your digital business forward.It will.

The Hundred is a promise; 100 takeaways that will move the needle.

Are you joining?
