Opportunities in Canada - Shopify Unite as a grant recipient

A few days on and I have had time to absorb the incredible experience I had attending Shopify Unite the annual partner and developer conference in Toronto 🇨🇦

After 30hours travel we arrived to a city buzzing with 2M people celebrating The Raptors basketball win🏆

Being a Shopify Unite Fund recipient was incredible as it enabled me to fly across the world to learn more and to mingle with like minded biz owners and tech leaders. Some whom I am excited to be collaborating with.

Shopify’s hospitality was a reflection of the experience I have had with The APAC team which is incredible to see the consistency across a global brand.

If you are a commerce business using Shopify you will be happy to know that Unite announced some wonderful improvements that will help you sell more effectively online including:

• Multi Currency (no more USD at check out)
• Multi Language (clever tech translating code and store front to your local language)
• 3D imaging (help your customers visualise products in context)
• Improved POS
