Program Overview
With the internet becoming increasingly affordable and accessible, billions of people in the developing world are now leapfrogging traditional consumption patterns and starting to consume online for the first time. This rising middle-class consumer wave has transformed economies and produced new internet giants equal to or even larger than their U.S. counterparts. Our speaker will delve into the greater influence of this new consumer wave and the fundamental changes taking place in developing economies, their preference for online shopping via the smartphone, and ways for investors to gain targeted exposure to this rapidly expanding sector.
You Will Learn:
- What McKinsey and Co. call “the biggest growth opportunity in the history of capitalism”
