DESCRIPTION
As Australian brands face increased pressure from international competitors, the growth opportunities in emerging Asian markets become significantly more appealing, and more accessible than ever before. Asia accounts for half of the global population and has the second-largest nominal GDP of all continents after Europe. With increasing digital connectivity and a maturing online market comparatively untouched by international brands, the world's eyes turn on Asia as the next big thing. In this session, we’ll together explore a market with multiple languages, currencies and audience behavioural nuances to demystify the opportunity of, and approach to expanding operations in Asian markets. Aligned with Australian strategic expertise, we’ll spark conversation on the common challenges and brand opportunities Asia presents to your brand.TRANSCRIPT
