The growth in e-commerce continues and is now a fundamental part of the way people and companies in Europe buy goods and do business.
This year’s event will feature over 250 delegates and will include a morning, high-level plenary that will be followed by focused parallel sessions. These sessions will deal with specific areas such as IPR and copyright, consumer confidence online, internet safety, payments, data protection and delivery solutions for tomorrow's e-commerce. The sessions will enable smaller groups to discuss the issues at hand in a collegiate and constructive manner. The conclusions from these workshops will be presented at the end of the conference by the organisers.
