We look at what's driving the democratization of storytelling and take a trip back into history to understand how communication technologies from the age of the Gutenberg Printing Press have always disrupted first then democratized second.

In this episode of Asia Tech Podcast my trends explorer colleague Yi Jing Fly joins me to share her latest insights. We look at how communication apps Tik Tok and Wesing are dominating a global teen user base and why, despite Zuckerberg's dismissal, this does not bode well for apps like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Spotify. Tik Tok and Tencent's Wesing are the first billion user apps out of Asia and they solve the customer problem in a fundamentally different way than Facebook and Google.

    ATP501: Podcasting for Robots - Human Communication in the Era of the Machine

Podcasting for Robots is about human communication is the era of the machine. As businesses undergo radical change driven by digital transformation and hypergrowth technologies like Artificial Intelligence, they will be similarly forced to find their human voice. The more we push into Automation, the more businesses and customers will year for the human touch - conversational tools like Podcasts. Evolving platforms that do "everything with everybody" will end up offering the same products to the same customers the only distinguishing barrier to entry left being the human beings who build and advocate the platform.

I'm spending a couple of days with my client Xero down in Brisbane Australia this week for Xerocon. Xerocon is the manifestation of how a platform competes in this era of digital transformation. At the end of the day, it's about people. Xero is an $8bn SAAS platform but it's product isn't really beautiful accounting software, it's the whole experience - it's this event, it's every interaction with the people in the team and it's their story. The physical software is just one tool in this bigger product suite. That's the experience we as customers buy today.

    ATP496: Digital Transformation and the New Customer Experience
    Aug 31 2019
    Discover more tech podcasts like this: Tech Podcast Asia. Produced by Pikkal & Co - Award Winning Podcast Agency. In this special edition of Asia Tech Podcast I share an inside look on what's happening in the fast moving world of Customer Experience in Asia. Case studies featured include Alibaba Hema, PingAn Financial, Grab, Uber, Emirates and Airasia. The challenge facing brands in Asia is their competition won't come from the next guy in category, but from a completely different sector. This asynchronous competition - players like Alibaba or Amazon - will be well resourced and able to wipe out incumbents and with them generations of legacy. We look at how Asia is positioned to accommodate Digital Transformation and who is leading in this space.
