LS:N Global welcomed over 50 delegates including Vodafone, Michael Kors, BMW and Chivas to our Elder Street headquarters to talk all things technology in a day packed full of insights.

From key growth areas in e-commerce and the impending financial maturity of members of Generation D to creative technology in retail and the power of blockchain technology, we covered the key trends companies need to know in the coming decade.

As well as hosting speakers such as M&C Saatchi’s chief innovation officer Dave Cox and Provenance founder Jessi Baker, we invited guests to explore our installation celebrating the launch of Land’s End – a groundbreaking virtual reality game from digital product studio ustwo.
