E-Commerce: pro tips and latest innovations - with D.Heffernan from Stripe

You just launched your service and you're hoping to draw hundreds of paying customers to your platform, great! How do you actually achieve that? What are the best practices to launch an e-commerce service? What do you need to think about as you expand your business overseas?

For this ApéroTalk, we're really happy to welcome back Daniel Heffernan, CEO of Stripe Japan. If you've been living under a rock and never heard about Stripe, it is revolutionizing the e-commerce industry by providing a plug & play solution to run your online payment, and currently handles billions of dollars for business around the world.

In the continuity of his previous talk, Daniel will introduce additional best practices for building and running an e-commerce business, and also provide an introduction of some of Stripe's latest innovations (including Stripe Atlas).

ApéroTalk is our event series based on a very simple (and very French) concept: Apéro and Talk.
