You'll hear panelists cover a variety of topics including some below:

-The roots of the on-demand economy that goes back to earlier generations of tech companies like Amazon and Netflix
-How emerging on-demand platforms have helped eliminate the stress of the daunting day-to-day tasks, like grocery shopping, to help put consumer’s lives more at ease
-How on-demand services are luring the average consumer to use their service and tactics
-How on-demand services are applying their technologies to mass market and tech trends in the on-demand space

You'll also be able to sip on a "Francisco" cocktail from Fernet Francisco, wine taste with Cline Cellars, have delicious crêpe cakes from Antoine Pâtisserie and try a special delivery from Yelp Eat24. We'll have a special VIP happy hour for a selection of Gone Social members at 6:00pm to mix and mingle with our panelists ahead of the event too.
