Thank you to all attendees and speakers!

"The Ethics in eCommerce Summit was an invaluable experience that left a lasting impact on my understanding of ethical considerations in the digital commerce realm.  

I particularly appreciated the focus on current challenges and emerging trends in the industry. 

The discussions and panel sessions delved into critical topics, such as data privacy, sustainability, and consumer trust, offering practical insights that I can readily apply in my role as an Ecommerce Manager."

"If only for the amount of posts and chronicles piling up already, I believe it is safe to say that the Ethical Commerce Alliance’s Ethics in eCommerce London Summit (at The Royal Institution) was a major success. We were all treated to a literal avalanche of insights coming from apparently unrelated angles. There was a sense of momentum, common purpose, and upcoming change."

Sergio Maldonado

PrivacyCloud

"Deeply enjoyed hearing countless view points in the Ethics in eCommerce Summit at The Royal Institution.

Ethical challenges in ecommerce should be prioritized out of our deep sense of ethical behaviour for any platform to succeed long term.

Thank you to the Ethical Commerce Alliance, for organizing this event and inviting me…"

"I can’t count how many conferences I’ve attended in the last 5 years, but the Ethics in eCommerce event in London 2023 stands out as one of the strongest collection of speakers and attendees on the subject. The event was designed for thought leadership, with a variety of backgrounds including, allowing a unique diversity of discussion. The venue was perfect encouraging people to network with each other. My only wish was that it was multiple days, as I would have loved even more!"
