Episode 11 - Welcome to the Metaverse
Episode 11, Jul 12, 2022, 03:22 PM
In this episode of Radio Retail we talk to David Josephs, Head of Industry for Retail at Meta.
Eyebrows were raised last October when Facebook changed it's name to Meta, representing a statement of intent for the company and it's focus on the Metaverse. But many people still don't understand much about the Metaverse, and for us as retailers, the role we can play in it. We talked to David to find out how retailers are already experimenting in VR, AR, and what the future holds.
We also speak to Richard Brassey from Barclays, on the increasing regulatory focus on flexible payment options, and how retailers can make sure they are being responsible lenders.
With the cost of living crisis already upon us, this is a topic becoming more and more critical to understand, and you can see our webinar on the topic here: https://app.livestorm.co/brc-1/responsible-lending-and-affordability-is-it-time-to-rethink-your-strategy
We hope you enjoy the podcast!
