Community Commerce Revolution: Building Scotland's Local Economic Infrastructure
Join us for an exclusive preview of how data analytics and community networks are reshaping local economies across Scotland. Discover the £50+ billion opportunity in community commerce that existing platforms are missing, and learn how LocaPerk is building the technology infrastructure to keep spending local while strengthening community connections.
As a Business Intelligence Analyst at University of Edinburgh with 6+ years in data analytics, Damilola Olayemi will reveal insights from analyzing cross-industry patterns that show why traditional loyalty programs fail local businesses, and how community-native analytics can transform small business success rates.
This session will cover:
– Why individual customer analytics miss the real opportunity in local commerce
– Technical innovation in community network effect optimization
– Business model innovation that creates value rather than extracting it
