The Drum Coffee morning: Alibaba panel

A lot of hard work goes into making The Drum magazine and, as such, we think each and every new issue should be shouted about and celebrated.

And so, as our newest magazine lands on desks all over the globe, we’d like to invite you and all The Drum+ members to join us at our offices in Shoreditch for a Coffee Morning.

We focus an entire issue of The Drum on eastern internet giant Alibaba, exploring how it is shaking up retail, spearheading a move away from cash and powering China’s social credit system. We’ll also ask how it can grow its influence in the West and look at its forays into film and Olympic sponsorship.

So drop by our offices on Wednesday 25th April, from 9am to 10:30am, and join us, our writers, our contributors, our interviewees and the rest of TheDrum+ community for a laid-back morning looking at the new issue, sharing ideas and networking.
