Often, each of us can get caught trying to laser in so tight on important facets of our work that we lose sight of the big picture. This month's Spring Seminar Series, created and staffed by members of the PDMI E-Commerce Council, reminds us that — sometimes — it's important to take a step back and consider the entirety of the world around us. Hear about key trends, the latest platforms, marketing concepts, and regulatory developments in affecting the e-commerce universe this one-hour roundtable discussion.
