“Commerce has always been a driver of innovation, but it’s not without its challenges,” says Danijel Bonacic, Strategy Director at DEPT®/COMMERCE. “For brands, it’s about grabbing attention, building loyalty, and boosting sales in a world of fast-changing tech and consumer desires. We’ve seen that succeeding without integration of technology, creativity, AI, data, and media is an uphill battle. You need a multidisciplinary team to connect the dots of the modern commerce journey, setting the stage for business growth.”
