What separates the wine industry from other sectors? Above all I believe it is the collaborative approach to regional cooperation where that old adage "a rising tide lifts all boats" really does apply. I commend the work the various global associations do to promote their regions and wines. On the technology side of things some of us (but not all), take that same view. I had a wonderful dinner the other night with Andrew Kamphuis, president of Commerce7 and VP Kristýna Butrymowiczová. It is not often that the CEO's of two competing platforms would dine out together, but Andrew and myself believe that through a collaborative approach we can improve the platform choice for the whole industry. Both our platforms collectively serve the needs of thousand of businesses globally, and fundamentally our systems exist to help you do business. To Winehub Commerce and Commerce7 customers out there, cheers...know that despite our healthy competition, the leadership behind your platforms is working to improve the sector just as hard as you are.
Well said! The wine industry does have such unique challenges and opportunities compared to other sectors. The tradition and complexity involved in wine make it both fascinating and difficult to navigate, especially for consumers looking to explore new options. I've been working with Madya, a virtual sommelier that guides customers through an array of wines and spirits, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. It's amazing to see how technology can make the world of wine more approachable, helping people find selections that truly match their tastes and preferences. Looking forward to seeing more innovations that keep the industry’s rich heritage alive while embracing the future!
Amazing Job 👏
