This month the Ottawa eBusiness Cluster is tackling the Impact of Credit Crunch on eCommerce and Banking during their monthly networking event. Guest speaker Marwan Forzely, President and CEO of MODASolutions, will explore the impact of the credit crunch on ecommerce and banking.
Based on survey data conducted by eBillme and Javeline research, the credit crunch is having a structural impact on the type of channels that consumers use for shopping, the payment methods they chose, their attitudes towards future spending and their views on the new administration.
For a preview of the data results, and the topic, watch Marwan's interview on Fox Business on President Obama inauguration day regarding consumer confidence and how it relates to the new administration.
The eBusiness Cluster event takes place on Wednesday February 18th from 6-9pm at bitHeads. Please RSVP to mdascal@ocri.ca if you plan on attending.
