GroupAny online-shop project without a decent PIM system poses a huge risk, because excellent product data and flawless interface function are the keys to success.
An icon is flying high

Jobs for first and fast movers or: Why it’s worth working in a digital agency
Plan.Net“We are a young, dynamic team. The organisational structures are flat, and doors are always open. Every week there’s fresh fruit and smoothies in the canteen. And for relaxation, there’s a ball pool and table football in the leisure lounge.” Have you ever read that in a job advertisement? Once or maybe more like a hundred times?

E-Commerce in the Middle East
GroupIn the last couple of years, entrepreneurs across the Middle East have launched new products, businesses, and have shown the possibility of creating a vibrant startup scene similar to Europe and the United States. Startups from the region have shown great promise. An example for this is the recent acquisition of Souq, an e-commerce player that got acquired by Amazon for close to $800 million. Another notable exit from this region is Talabat which was acquired by Delivery Hero based out of Germany. According to a report published by MAGNiTT, a research agency, more than $870 million were invested in Middle Eastern startups last year and each company raised more than $500k individually. E-commerce, however, is a crucial domain in which startups can do much more to fill the gap in the market, so let’s take a closer look at this vital industry.

The new shining beacon for retail
GroupImagine if “talking” products existed in the retail trade. Imagine if every retail surface and every product could act as a stage for brand and product presentation. Your favourite celebrity chef could pop up in the supermarket as a hologram and offer you cooking tips for the products on display on the shelf. When looking for the right golf club, a 3D light figure of your favourite sports star could appear in the room and talk you through the best products available in the sales area. Does that sound like something from the future? Well, it actually already exists today: Mixed Reality makes experiences like this possible.

User experience with voice user interfaces – a diary study using Amazon Echo as an example
FacitVoice user interfaces are in no way a new phenomenon. Siri has been on the market since 2011. However, with the seemingly omnipresent advertising for Amazon Echo, the topic is now more relevant than ever. Competitors of the Echo are very active in this field, too. Google with Assistant, Microsoft with Cortana and Facebook with their Messenger M are vying for consumer favour. Consequently, graphic interfaces are being increasingly replaced by or only used in conjunction with voice user interfaces, as speech has been the simplest and most used form of communication for millennia. Even today, voice user interfaces are not without their faults.
