Tweets, blogs, podcasts, Facebook… we communicate with each other in our everyday lives in ways we never dreamed of a few years ago.

But how do our customers communicate with us? Or to be precise, how would they like to? And what are we in our businesses doing about it?

At our ECR Europe conference next May we will examine how the digital age is shaping our industry now and how we can take advantage of it. And we are not just talking about clicks and bricks. How is the latest technology and thinking impacting on all kinds of core business issues from marketing to data privacy and the supply chain?

Find out next May when we consider… ECR: The next generation.
