At RetailNews.asia he tracks Coupang, Rakuten, Kakao, JD.com and the growing wave of AI-native commerce startups across the region. He is particularly interested in how physical stores are being wired up with computer vision, RFID and generative AI tools for staff and shoppers.

He welcomes tips on retail media networks, headless commerce and AI pilots that are actually moving the needle.
