HOME & HOME+ PRELUDE takes you through the 4-point game-plan for a powerful Home Business.

We bring together an elite group of business leaders to explore innovations, trends and strategies to enhance business in today’s digitally competitive environment.

Digital Disruption: Digital has helped build a parallel narrative of inductive doctrines where focus is on looking at convergence between functions, breaking down functional silos within organizations by adopting a customer-centric approach.

Channel Proliferation: The proliferation of channels including online does change the game and having a multi-channel strategy is critical.

Think NOW, Buy NOW: Shorter lead times from Design to Manufacturing to Retailing will be the future of Home & Home furnishing business. it is more profitable to sync with customers and offer them what they want to buy NOW
