Now on the BBC News Channel, time for Talking Business with Linda | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Yeuh. What is the future for the media | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
industry as consumers become more discerning and social? We hear from | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
insiders and some of the biggest players at the cutting edge of | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
internet innovation. Here in Singapore, I'm Linda Yeuh and we're | :00:17. | :00:17. | |
talking business. Welcome to the programme. The media | :00:18. | :00:44. | |
landscape is changing at a breakneck pace. The advent of new media is | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
changing the structure of how products are marketed and advertised | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
to you and me. So, how do companies create a brand for themselves in | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
this fragmented New World? I sat down with Scott Donaldson, global | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
chief content officer of media communications agency Universal | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
McCann, based in New York, and Vishnu Mohan, chief executive of | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
Asia`Pacific for Havas Media Group, based in Singapore. Lovely to speak | :01:05. | :01:16. | |
to the two of you. Scott, let me start with you. What makes a | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
successful brand? Well, I think my definition of brand has always been | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
what I thought was one of the most simple definitions, which is that a | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
brand is a promise. It's a promise to the consumer of a certain level | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
of consistency and a certain level of quality. But I think in today's | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
world, it's much more complex than that. Because it used to be that | :01:37. | :01:46. | |
whoever was making the brand defined what that promise was and then had | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
to deliver on it. In fact, today, a brand is really a sum of a lot of | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
different things. It's shaped as much by its audience and by its | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
detractors and by its fans as it is by the brand marketers themselves. | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
So it really is a much better thing, in a way, because the relationship | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
with the consumer is so much deeper, but it's a much more complicated | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
landscape than it used to be, as well. So we're past the Mad Men era, | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
in terms of the agencies telling you, "that's the brand and that's | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
what defines the brand". What do you think? I think to add to what Scott | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
has just said, I think one of the most important things that brands | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
need to be today is meaningful. We did a little study globally and it | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
proved continuously, year after year for four years, that consumers are | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
basically saying that70% of the brands have no life. They don't | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
trust brands. And in the era of trust, which is extremely important, | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
brands go beyond what Scott was just mentioning about a promise, a | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
product or benefits or irrational benefits. Consumers are seeking much | :02:41. | :03:00. | |
more, much more out of the brands. And if the brands do not deliver | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
that, it's going to be a dead one. And that's a very, very... You know, | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
a very interesting finding that appeared in that survey. I am taking | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
it to all our advertisers and they're really... If you look at the | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
speeches that are being made today by the CMOs, whether it be Unilever | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
or P or anybody else, they aren't talking about business with purpose | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
today. This wasn't one of the languages that was being used in the | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
past. And that's because they realise that the power has shifted | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
from them into the hands of the consumer. So they have to do | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
something. So what are the kinds of changes in having to relate directly | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
to the consumers to persuade them that this is a trustworthy, | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
meaningful brand? I think we're moving and Vishnu makes a great | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
point. It's not about product claims any more. People are very suspicious | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
of those. They don't want to be told what brand it is. But if you think | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
about advertising and marketing, for 100 years, you and I would be having | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
a conversation and somebody would come in... A brand would walk in, | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
wait their arms around, interrupt the conversation we're having and | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
talk about themselves. And that world is just over. That | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
interruptive, intrusive form of marketing is just dead. And what has | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
to replace it is storytelling. The most basic way we human beings make | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
sense of the world is through stories. And brands have to do the | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
same thing. They have to understand what the conversation is that we're | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
having, where they might add value to it, what their story is. Not what | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
are their product claims but what is their role and their purpose in our | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
lives? It's bigger than that. And then come in and be a part of that | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
conversation with us. That's the only way the brand is going to | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
succeed. I think, to add to that, when brands start to give consumers, | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
like, a forum, whereby consumers can actually share their experiences... | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
And that sharing experiences much more happening today in the world of | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
social media. Then the brands really get the opportunity to become | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
engaging. If you look at a lot of the stuff that's going around in | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
today's world in terms of brands trying to make the most out of it, | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
it's really been brands trying to give the power in the hands of the | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
consumer by allowing them to express their views of the brand or share | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
the experience. And then from there, the story has emerged. What if I'm a | :04:53. | :05:02. | |
viewer, watching this and thinking, "Oh, they're trying to sell me | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
brands. I just want a good product that is cheap. Why should I buy into | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
this experience and storytelling? Isn't it just going to mark up the | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
price of what I buy"? I don't think it's a matter of whether or not | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
people buy into it. I think it's a matter of... Look, out there every | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
day, people are making decisions on what to spend time with and what not | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
to, what to pay attention to and what to block out of their lives. I | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
think it's just a very simple reality that brands either are going | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
to make stuff that is worthy of people's time or they're not an | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
they're going to be blocked out. Because people have the power to do | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
that now. You can't just intrude on their lives and give them the | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
messaging you want. So it's not a matter of selling because if you | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
don't want to be sold to, you're not going to be sold to because these | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
messages aren't going to reach you and resonate with you. So really, | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
the only answer is that brands have to try to make stuff that is as | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
worthy of people's time as anything else they would spend time with. | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
That's a very high bar. It really is the future. But Scott, if you think | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
about the value question, consumers seeking value, that's never going to | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
go away, OK? We always seek value from brands at all points of time. | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
But the reality is, every brand is going to do that, right? So when | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
every brand is still trying to get to the same value equation, who do I | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
choose? Will I choose just the brand which is the brand which is 19? Or | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
the brand which is 20, which is doing a little extra, which is more | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
meaningful for me? I would pay the 20. And that's the difference. They | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
will pay a premium and a brand that breaks through and engages | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
audiences, they will pay, sometimes an irrational premium, because of | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
the connection and relationship. You both mentioned social media changing | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
tastes. How do you keep ahead of it? Because now it seems as if tastes do | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
change very fast. Something can happen on the internet and it just | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
changes the way people view a product. How do you stay abreast of | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
that? I think it's about listening. I think it's about... Do you trawl | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
Twitter a lot or anything? I think brands have to be constantly | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
listening to the conversations that their audiences are having and and | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
using... We used to think of data and creativity as almost enemies of | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
each. `` of each other. Creative people in our industry just want to | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
go off in a room by themselves and have a fantastic idea hit them. And | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
when people talked about big data, that seems to be the antithesis of | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
creativity. But in fact, data will spark the ideas if you pay attention | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
to it. There's a lot in there that you can see coming, through social | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
listening, and you can get insight into what's important to your | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
audience. And then it's a matter of being able to respond quickly, which | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
is something that brands haven't been able to do in the past. But | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
really, we are marketing in real`time speed at this point. And | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
that's a huge adjustment for brands. It's also why you see some brands | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
making mistakes and stumbling really badly on social media. It's a tricky | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
world but it's one that you have to play in to stay relevant. I think | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
listening is one part of it and you brought up this thing about Mad Men. | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
There's another theory going about "math men" today. In today's world, | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
do you need more madmen or do you need more math men? To listen, | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
actually, you need to make out of this voluminous data that you are | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
getting some sense that you can give back to the brand to really make an | :08:00. | :08:07. | |
actionable impact. And I think that's very, very key and that's one | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
of the challenges that most people are struggling with. How do you take | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
this massive amount of data that you have collected into an actionable | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
intelligence? Social media is widely seen as a | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
game changer in the future of the media industry. It's having the | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
biggest impact on publishing of online content. Companies now needs | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
to be increasingly agile and adaptable to the way information, | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
ideas and news are shared. Joining me today to discuss these trends are | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
Adam Anger, general manager for greater China at Microsoft | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
Advertising. Scott Lamb, vice president of international at online | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
publisher Buzzfeed. And Rose Tsou, senior vice president in charge of | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
the Asia`Pacific region for web portal and search engine company | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
Yahoo. Welcome to all of you. I'm going to start with you, Adam. Right | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
now, when you look at the way that social media is changing the way | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
that online content gets consumed, what are the biggest trends that you | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
are seeing among consumers? Well, some of the things that we are | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
seeing is a big way that consumers are changing the way they consume | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
media. We see that a lot of the consumers across Asia`Pacific, and | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
even across the world... Much more of their time is spent consuming | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
online, digitally and through the internet, than it is through TV. We | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
also know that today's generation is becoming an always`on generation. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
You see that people carry their mobile with them almost all the time | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
and so this concept of always having information readily available is | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
important for media owners to understand. Also for media | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
distributors to understand, as well as for advertisers to understand how | :09:46. | :09:52. | |
the reach those audiences. Jump in here, Scott. In terms of Buzzfeed, | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
how do you actually create content, knowing that trends are changing so | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
quickly? One of the things we think about a lot at Buzzfeed is that not | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
only people consuming a lot more digital media but they are using | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
that media to connect with people in their lives. Their social feed is | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
basically... It reflects their actual social network. And they want | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
to consume content but even more than that, they want something where | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
they are almost publishers themselves. And they want to be able | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
to share that with people as a way of communicating with them and | :10:25. | :10:26. | |
bonding with them. So it's very important for both publishers and | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
brands to think about that exchange when they create content. Rose, is | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
there a difference between how people consume media on mobile | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
devices or internet or... What kind of differentiation are you beginning | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
to see? Definitely. I think because on mobile devices, people are | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
consuming content... In the past, people were looking at a computer | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
most of the time but now when they are on the road, in the morning, we | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
see traffic spikes. Mobile devices in the morning, then they go back to | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
the office and it's PC again, till lunchtime when the mobile comes out | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
and in the evening, it's tablet. You see different devices shifting the | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
user consumption of media. So that becomes very important for the | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
publishers and for the content providers alike, to think of how you | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
configure your content into different scenarios, different sizes | :11:19. | :11:25. | |
of screen. And therefore to be able to capture the right moment of the | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
consumer as they're consuming the content. This is really a big | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
question for you, isn't it, Scott? How do you tailor the content keep | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
the viewers coming back? Yeah, and this notion of figuring out what the | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
main platform is at any moment is so key. And the web, if anything, is in | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
a constant state of change. Right now, for a lot of publishers, | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
Facebook is a very powerful platform. It might be the case that | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
that's true in five years or it might be that a service like | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
WhatsApp comes along and supplants the way that people are sharing | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
things. Those are services that align as well are growing | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
massively, especially in Asia. So as a publisher, we need to really pay a | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
lot of attention to what people are using and learn to adapt to new | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
platforms. How do you make money off of social media? How do you think | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
money off of what you do? `` make money. That's an excellent | :12:21. | :12:22. | |
question. For Buzzfeed, our primary advertising, and our only | :12:23. | :12:24. | |
advertising product, is social advertising. So the ad is actually a | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
unit of content. We charge advertisers to display it on | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
Buzzfeed but then we give them a social list, which is people sharing | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
it. So it actually works very well because it's the atomised unit of | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
content that can go on Twitter, go on Facebook. It shares really easily | :12:40. | :12:50. | |
across a wide range of platforms. How do you make money off social | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
media? So our advertising is where we work with the clients. And one of | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
the important trends that we have seen is the need of advertising, | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
similar to Scott, is the social ad for Buzzfeed, for Yahoo where | :13:10. | :13:16. | |
developing Mac of his instrument advertising as the user is looking | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
at the streaming content and you have native advertising which is | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
personalised. Once again personalisation comes in. If the ad | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
is personal it is talking to you. A user is more likely to share it. We | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
can utilise the social media to amplify the advertiser's impact. | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
When the advertisers are programmed in a way that is actually personal. | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
So going native advertising is a big trend for the industry and certainly | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
for Yahoo as well. Local `based advertising. And also when you think | :13:49. | :13:50. | |
about advertising, really putting the consumer first. Because I think | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
a lot of criticism of some of the online advertising in the past has | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
been this super obtrusive advertising that flies into action | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
across your website. All I want to do is check my e`mail, why am by | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
watching this ad? And really consumers are super open and | :14:07. | :14:08. | |
receptive to brands reaching them online, if it is reached to them in | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
an additive way to their experience. So a lot of what we are focused on, | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
with a lot of partners in the industry, is how you make | :14:20. | :14:21. | |
advertising online immersive, beautiful, engaging, which is going | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
to benefit the consumer but also in the end the advertiser. Is it | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
lucrative? It's very much can be. It is actually getting more lucrative | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
because advertisers are getting better lift for their advertising | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
message. Advertisers would argue that lucrative is one thing but | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
being more effective... The nice thing about digital advertising is | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
it is very measurable. This is what advertisers really enjoy about | :14:48. | :14:49. | |
advertising online, the ability to measure. They start to be able to | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
calculate ROI in a very meaningful way. Return on their investment. | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
Often times when people talk about personalised advertising, I can | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
already hear people I know saying that sounds like they are taking my | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
personal data. I don't know if I want them to take my personal data, | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
I am surfing the web. I don't necessarily want my data to be | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
collected and then, you know, sent back at me in terms of advertising. | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
What do you say to that? Well, you know, on the one hand obviously | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
privacy is something that is terribly important. It has recently | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
become a large part of the conversation about people living | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
their lives online. At the same time, it is certainly in the | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
interest of any advertiser that uses personalisation to make sure that | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
data is kept very, very safe. And as long as it is providing a clearly | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
useful service for them, I think that they will be OK with that | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
trade`off. As long as they feel safe and protected and are getting | :15:46. | :15:47. | |
something out of sharing their data, as they often do. And people love | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
Facebook, which has a lot of their data, because it provides them a | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
valuable service... I think as long as there is a good balance there, it | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
is going to be something people feel OK with. It is absolutely critical. | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
I think any reputable company We'll take privacy of users in the highest | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
regard. It is very critical. We keep it as the first priority. At the | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
same time, we absolutely see the user wanting to see content as | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
relative to them as possible. They do not want to be thrown a massive | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
bit of information without any concern for what interests them. | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
Personalisation is adding value to the users but of course the privacy | :16:30. | :16:36. | |
is, I think, absolutely, for any other companies, absolutely treated | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
with the very highest regard. It is number one priority. I think both of | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
it is also make sure that you can put the consumer of the media in | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
control of their privacy. And that is a very big part of where we are | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
focused, through all of the software that we deliver on devices and | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
online, on making sure that we help consumers understand how they can be | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
in control of the privacy settings and Italy education to empower them. | :17:03. | :17:10. | |
That was rose from Yahoo, Adam from Microsoft advertising and a | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
representative from Busby. Utterances are moving minors. You | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
have probably heard of Bitcoin, especially in the past two months. | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
`` currencies are moving online. It is not without controversy and I | :17:25. | :17:32. | |
spoke to a representative from the Bitcoin Foundation and started by | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
asking him whether it can be considered a real currency. I would | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
consider Bitcoin to be a new asset class. Not particularly exactly like | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
anything else. And so when we use the word currency, we often talk | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
about something backed by a government of some sort. Although in | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
England and many other countries, there is a long history of local | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
currencies were some institution or group of people will provide some | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
backing to something. I think it is more interesting to ask whether it | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
is a good value or store of value is. That is a good point about straw | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
of value. If I were an online shop, while it except Bitcoin for payment | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
as the value can fluctuate? That is something that online store owners | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
think a lot about. It turns out that Colin users, is no reason, is that | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
it calling orders shops that excepted. `` Bitcoin users love | :18:31. | :18:39. | |
shops that excepted. A website recently started to accept it and | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
have $1 million worth of purchases in the first month. If you want to | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
hate all of your bets and that this interest, you can do this. However, | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
as the currency has gone up so much in value, some owners that have held | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
onto it have become very wealthy and that could be an incentive for some | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
merchants as well. But there have been instances of theft because you | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
can hack into the algorithm, can you not? There have been cases of | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
Bitcoins being lost, stolen... Absolutely. We do not know of any | :19:13. | :19:20. | |
circumstances where are the core technology was compromised but it | :19:21. | :19:22. | |
turns out that if you are willing to trust someone with your Bitcoin is, | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
that may not be well placed. In such a young industry, there are of | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
course some very high`profile situations where perhaps someone | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
lost coins, perhaps they were just taken. It can be hard to tell. I | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
would think that as a virtual currency or asset class, protecting | :19:41. | :19:48. | |
it before people put in money to buy Bitcoins, that has got to be a | :19:49. | :19:55. | |
paramount issue, is it not? Yes. That would limit the expansion if | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
people did not feel like they can trust that they are not going to | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
lose money. I think that is right. There can be real consumer harm as | :20:03. | :20:10. | |
well. We are talking on the one hand how the technology grows but there | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
is also the question of how consumers can be protected if they | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
engage. I think that is almost more important. There are probably a few | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
million people worldwide right now that use Bitcoin and it is a little | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
bit like an insane religious army, working on all these different | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
things all at the time and many are working on just that question. How | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
to make it safer and easier to use. I think that will get solved. Where | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
do you see the regulation changing around the world? Are there | :20:41. | :20:42. | |
particular countries that are doing it well and some that are not? I | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
think we have got Germany taking a good and early evenhanded approach. | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
We saw the UK doing nicely also. We actually have some regulation that | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
was not very thin bull and then reversed it in the last month or so. | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
We have taken a different approach. `` very sensible. The US Federal | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
government has been amazingly open and worked with Bitcoin in general | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
to try to work out how it all fits. I think the countries that do that | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
will be in some early rewards. They will see capital inflow and on | :21:14. | :21:25. | |
communal info. Will past experiences hampered the development of | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
exchanges in the future? I do not think so. I think that if you took | :21:30. | :21:31. | |
somebody with any market background and they looked at a previous online | :21:32. | :21:39. | |
currency, they would have been horrified. That is an outcome they | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
would have expected all. It was really quite lucrative for the | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
founders and so we know that markets that can aggregate liquidity do in | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
fact tend to do very well over time. I think as far as money coming into | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
the Bitcoin on Tuesdays, I think it is likely to push it along because | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
there is this large incumbents out of the space. That was Peter of the | :22:08. | :22:16. | |
Bitcoin Foundation. Whether it is fast changing technology or social | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
media, companies are having to think differently about how to connect | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
with consumers online. With brands and advertisers, creating a | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
connection with people seems to be the key. That is all we have time | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
for this week. Check out our website and add me on Twitter. Join me next | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
week for more talking business with me. | :22:35. | :22:43. | |
Good evening. It is pleasant enough in the sunshine at the moment. | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
Temperatures reached 18 degrees in parts of England Scotland but they | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
will not have to drop away over the evening and overnight. It is going | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
to be a mother Shelly won but the frost perhaps not as extensive as | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
last night, particularly across England and Wales. `` it is going to | :23:02. | :23:03. | |
be another chilly night. | :23:04. | :23:06. |
