E-commerce seminar

In a move to bring Scotland in line with wider British success in e-commerce, experts in the sector will convene in Glasgow later this month to help Scottish companies access the £250 billion market – a rare high-growth sector in which the UK leads the world.

Polly Purvis, executive director of IT trade group ScotlandIS, which is hosting the session, said:  "Online sales are going through the roof while traditional business models stagnate, but e-commerce is not just simply about setting up a website. [It] needs a blend of specialist skills and expertise, with a requirement to keep up to date.
