Each and every one of the speakers told their past experiences, as well as the project they are currently doing in the E-Commerce.
Before the talk began, a signing of MoU was held, before moving on to the sharing session from the speakers. The main topic of the sharing session was to explain how urgent it is for the current and upcoming entrepreneurs to seriously considering E-Commerce as their platform for business. With E-Commerce, entrepreneurs will have the chance to gain efficiency at the highest rate comparing to the conventional commerce. Conventional commerce requires stores, which will require maintenance of the building, hiring and training of the employees, and many others that are substantial in owning a store.
E-Commerce, on the other hand, does not require any maintenance. It will only need a handful skill of technology, maintaining the website. After acquiring the skill to manage a website, any entrepreneurs can start their business right away, anywhere they want. It will not require employees and building. With all of the cutting of the production costs, entrepreneurs can still achieve the same ammount of profit as with the conventional commerce, and of course, with higher rate of profit.
