“The consumer is evolving. E-commerce ventures need to build processes and leverage on it,” the six-member panel moderated by Rajiv Prakash, a venture partner in e-commerce and consumer businesses said.
The panelists were unanimous that the fashion and lifestyle category has been the playground for online innovation. And as Manmohan Agarwal of Yebhi.com said, the bigger picture in terms of e-com in the country, is yet to unveil itself.
