In the growing world of eCommerce, Shopify has emerged as one of the most trusted platforms in the market.

Very recently, Shopify came to India to host its flamboyant event, the Shopify Pursuit India 2018. The objective of this event was to bring together Shopify experts and enthusiasts, thought leaders and evangelists to expand and facilitate the growth of businesses as well as the eCommerce platform itself.
The event was organized at the ITC Gardenia, Bangalore from 22nd November till 23rd November and was filled with insights from local marketers as well as contribution from key Shopify players. Shopify Pursuit 2018 Bangalore was sponsored by Mobikasa and PayPal.
