Name: Ecommerce: How It Evolved in 2020 and What to Expect in 2021
Date: January 28, 2021
Time: 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST
Event Description:
Hosted by:  Canadian Chamber of Commerce
 

2020 has universally been described as “unprecedented.” While “unprecedented” usually came in the form of new challenges, trials, and tribulations, 2020 also brought unprecedented growth and adoption of e-commerce.

As businesses and consumers alike had to adapt how they interact in a new socially distanced world, Canadians increasingly turned to e-commerce for everything from essential cleaning supplies, to holiday gifts, to groceries, and even a snack from your favourite neighbourhood pub. Layered on top of the pandemic was a rise in support for businesses owned by BIPOC Canadians, and e-commerce platforms responded accordingly.

2020 may have changed e-commerce forever, but what trends are here to stay and what innovation do experts expect to see next?
