In the fast-moving world of ecommerce, staying ahead means constantly learning, adapting, and finding inspiration from the best.
MageCloud recently attended the Manchester Digital Ecommerce Conference 2025. Here’s a look at what inspired us most and the key takeaways we’re excited to bring back to our clients and projects.
A Day of Ecommerce Innovation
Manchester Digital Ecommerce Conference 2025 — a dynamic event filled with cutting-edge insights, thought-provoking talks, valuable networking, standout stories from some of the biggest names in ecommerce, and the latest trends shaping the future of online business.
Expertly hosted by Katie Gallagher OBE, the event brought together ecommerce professionals, industry leaders, and digital innovators. Brands like Patagonia, Pecking, July Child, Fox Group, Beauty Bay, Voxelo AI, and Cyberlab shared their insights across ecommerce trends, AI advancements, and digital brand growth.
Building Brands with Values at the Core
One of the standout moments was hearing the story of Patagonia — a brilliant example of purpose-driven branding combined with sustainable growth. Their journey echoed much of what we see with our own clients: scaling businesses while staying true to their values.
Throughout the day, topics ranged from emerging technologies to actionable brand-building strategies.
The MageCloud team of ecommerce experts left the event feeling energised and ready to apply these insights to our future projects.
