NEW RETAIL BORN IN CHINA GOING GLOBAL:
HOW CHINESE TECH GIANTS ARE CHANGING GLOBAL COMMERCE

Alibaba, Jingdong, Tencent and a growing group of innovative brands, retailers and
digital pioneers, fueled by the demands of the most spoiled consumers in the world have spurred a retail renaissance and plotted a course for the future of retail and
consumption around the world. If you want to see the future of retail and commerce, read this book, and then, if you can, spend a week shopping in Shanghai.

“The gravitational force of retail has moved east and industry executives that ignore this monumental shift do so at their peril. “New Retail” is a concise, no nonsense look into one of the most profound revolutions in retail history. Authors Dudarenok and Michael Zakkour provide a clear and well documented narrative on how companies like Alibaba, JD and Tencent are, quite literally, reinventing the modern concept of retail.”

UNLOCKING THE WORLD’S LARGEST E-MARKET:
A GUIDE TO SELLING ON CHINESE SOCIAL MEDIA

If you want to expand your business to the world’s largest e-market, this is the book you need. In this extended and updated edition, Ashley Galina Dudarenok expands
her analysis to include the booming technology scene in China, where two giants
— Alibaba and Tencent — are engaged in an epic rivalry. You’ll also learn how new
technologies, like supercomputing, blockchain technology and artificial intelligence, are playing a role as the epicentre of tech innovation moves East and how Chinese
corporations are making big moves on the world stage.

“Ashley Galina Dudarenok has written a clear, analytical guide to digital marketing on Chinese social media. Merely projecting Western e-marketing onto the Chinese markets and platforms is unlikely to work; Dudarenok explains in readable detail why not and what to do about it. ”
