2013 Theme : «Leverage Consumer Engagement Across Tiers»

Reaching scale (natonal distribution, from Top Tiers to Lower Tiers) in China, is as much a strategic stake as a challenge for brands, that impacts their whole mix, being Luxury, FMCG…. The objective of this edition is to identify the diversity of consumers on/off line expectations, behaviors and spending habits, and discover the levers and best strategies to seduce and convince Chinese customers, from brand-addicts to more conservative, functional-driven ones

To better leverage the fast rising growth of affluent consumers, China Connect will gather experts to debate the best strategies to tackle the following stakes across the country

-  Harness the power of mobile and social marketing

- Embrace (social) online shopping frenzy to reach the masses

- Capture Chinese love for storytelling : Content your brand
