Lockdowns and social distancing accelerated the adoption of the online channel for apparel shopping
LONDON, July 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Ecommerce in Apparel – Thematic Research report offered by GlobalData Plc shows how e-commerce can be integrated across the apparel value chain. The report will act as a guide for companies and will recommend whether they should invest, ignore, or explore specific aspects of e-commerce.
The global online apparel sales were estimated at $425 billion in 2020. As consumer spending shifts from physical stores to online channels, e-commerce will remain the fastest-growing area of retail. Moreover, COVID-19 has led to an unprecedented number of high-street closures and caused foot traffic to fall, leaving shoppers with little choice but to purchase items online.

NEC XON general manager of networks Anthony Laing said that an open RAN model is ideal for deploying mobile Internet in Africa because of its flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
“Typically, mobile network operators would only have a few vendors to choose from when deploying new networks,” he said.
“Open RAN allows telecommunications providers to build networks with similar functionality but allows the use of components from multiple vendors,” said Laing.
Laing said NEC XON managed to build a functional end-to-end Open RAN lab and launched it last week at the company’s head office in Midrand.
NEC XON’s multi-vendor 5G Open RAN network consists of Red Hat, Dell, Druid, Rakuten, ADVA and Juniper Networks.

Cabify to launch Spain’s first hydrogen-powered ride-hailing fleet
Cabify’s new hydrogen-powered vehicles offer a range of around 550km, with a refuelling time of only three to five minutes, similar to that of a conventional combustion vehicle.
Cabify has announced that it has launched the first fleet of VTC, ride-hailing vehicles that use hydrogen as a source of energy in Spain, in partnership with Toyota. Four first-generation Toyota Mirai vehicles have already been delivered to the fleet, which is set to increase by the end of 2022.
The new fleet of vehicles uses hydrogen as an energy source to generate, within the fuel cell, the electricity needed to power the electric motor, generating water as the only waste in the whole process. The refuelling time for these vehicles is only three to five minutes, similar to that of a standard combustion vehicle, and offers a range of around 550km.
Refuelling will take place at Enagás subsidiary Scale Gas’ private hydrogen station in Madrid, which was opened in January 2021 and is the first refuelling station in Spain that allows hydrogen to be refuelled at 700 bar.

Meet Anna Khoruzhaya, VP, Strategy, Planning and Global Go-to-Market, Strategic Initiatives. An avid explorer, Anna likes to set herself personal challenges on her travels. Having already reached the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, a trek to Mt. Fuji is next on the list for Anna. We sat down with her to chat about her career journey, the mantra that inspires her and why she believes Rakuten Symphony will change the landscape of the telecom industry.
Tell us about your journey before Rakuten Symphony
I was born in St. Petersburg, Russia and raised by (almost) the Black Sea in a city called Krasnodar. I left the country about twelve years ago and went to Germany where I did my Master's Degree focusing on IFRS and began my career with KPMG in auditing. So my foundation comes from accounting and finance. Due to my natural inclination towards entrepreneurship and the team bonding that comes with starting something new, I moved to an incubation VC and ultimately one of its back then start-ups, HelloFresh.
Soon after, I felt the need to invest in my personal growth, so I packed my belongings after spending eight years in Germany and moved to London for a couple years to get my MBA from London Business School, focusing on strategy, marketing and change management. While in B-school, I kick-started a program called “Elevate” to help MBAs learn how to transition their career into the tech world. I also got an opportunity to work at Rakuten Group in Tokyo in the summer in the Global Data Science Department.
I fell in love with Japan over the two months and when I was given an offer to join Rakuten Mobile to work on its global expansion and bring its state-of-the-art technology to other telcos, I couldn't say no. I was one of the first people who joined Rakuten Symphony, even before it had its name. I hit the ground running in the Sales and Marketing team, speaking to over 100 telecom operators in the first six months and helping secure our first major deal. It has been a great roller-coaster experience so far!
What would you say are your current roles and responsibilities?
Currently, my primary role is to drive our go-to-market (GTM) strategy and be the liaison for strategic customers and potential clients, understanding their issues and pain points and acting as a mediator when facing any challenges. I am also driving the sustainable business strategy for the company as we develop our identity as a sustainability leader, providing sustainable solutions. If you would ask me to describe my work in two words, I would say that I am a “problem solver”.
What excites you about the industry you are working in?
Telecom is one of the few industries that still has not fully transitioned its workloads into the cloud. The fact that we are driving this change excites me. I often feel like Rakuten Symphony is a sudden gust of cool air on a very hot day and I feel proud to be part of this movement.
Part of my work is impacting the industry by showing customers how they can increase their average revenue per user (ARPU) without impacting the wallets of the end-consumers. Our case studies build trust and help them rethink traditional ways of doing business. Hopefully, in the long run it will also make connectivity more available to all. That definitely gets me going.
What does a day in your life usually look like?
Each day is different than the last and even though I may have a plan, I always end up adapting. Creating and maintaining relationships with our major suppliers who are crucial to our work is currently a big part of my daily routine next to critical customer interactions. My other big mission is to see how we can structure our team to meet business objectives and so I spend time working with teams along with our Chief Business Officer to help Rakuten Symphony grow. As mentioned already, I’ve also started looking into our sustainable business strategy.
Is there a mantra or quote you keep going back to for inspiration?
“Just do it.” I do not like pointing the finger at others. When I realize that things are not going according to plan, I like to step in and do my best to keep the wheel turning. Admittedly, it is not always easy and that’s okay.
Finally, what are some of the personal and professional goals you have set yourself for the near future?
I would like to meditate and run regularly again, something I used to do earlier. Climbing Mt. Fuji is also a personal goal for me in 2022.
Professionally, having an additional role of leading our sustainability efforts at Rakuten Symphony, I would like to build the team and drive impact not only within the company but also across the whole industry.

Von Rakuten Advertising | 20 June 2022 | MARKETING STRATEGIES
Die allgemein anerkannte Regel der Werbung besagt, dass ein Zuschauer einen Werbespot siebenmal sehen muss, damit er sich diesen einprägt. Dies war jahrzehntelang die Grundlage für Strategien des herkömmlichen Fernsehens.
Obwohl es sich bei Streaming-Diensten um einen relativ jungen Sektor handelt, haben Studien von Rakuten Advertising gezeigt, dass in einigen Märkten die Markenerinnerung 24 Stunden nach dem Sehen einer Werbung höher ist als im herkömmlichen Fernsehen.

E-commerce giant Rakuten Group Inc. also employs many Indians. An official said that of the 20 percent foreign staff at its Japan offices, around 1,000 hail from India.
After opening its first office in Bengaluru in 2014, the company has established research and development centers in the city of Indore in central India and the capital Delhi following the announcement of the launch of Rakuten Mobile in 2018 and Rakuten Symphony, its cloud-based business-to-business offering, in 2021.
"India is a vibrant growth market and a great source of top talent and ideas...We continue to invest in our operations in India to attract top IT professionals" to drive the development of mobile, internet, fintech and e-commerce services, Yasufumi Hirai, group executive vice president and chief information officer at Rakuten told Kyodo News.
A dire need for software engineers, however, is not the only reason why Japan has become an attractive lure for such talent.
The flexible nature of Japan's tech industry, which has fewer entry barriers such as language, along with progressive human resource policies compared to non-IT companies, makes it attractive, Bhatkar said.
