Biglight Briefings Series 1: Session 2 - in partnership with Tech Circus.
As retail brands approach a dramatically uncertain future and begin to reimagine what their digital channels might be capable of, what can we learn from the music industry’s 10-year journey from disruption to recovery?
Join us to hear Will Page, former Chief Economist at Spotify and PRS for Music, explore how the music industry made this transition, discovering how to use data to shape content and create personalised experiences and consider how what they learned could help shape the future of retail.
