Shift to the East with Simon Kemp

Simon Kemp, founder and CEO of Kepios joined us to discuss the recent Digital 2019 Q4 Global StatShot Report and share the major observations in how Asia Pacific has shifted social media from the west to the east. Starting from the report, Simon shares the key major observations including Asia's rising, Tik Tok vs Facebook and how 5G will shape mobile and social media in 2020. Last but not least, Simon offers his predictions on the digital world as he looks forward to 2020.

Here are the interesting show notes and links to the discussion (with time-stamps included):

    • How has been the growth in social media like in Asia Pacific: is it growing, stagnating or declining?
    • Based on the recent backlashes on Facebook, does the data show that the social media site has been on a decline? And are other platforms owned by Facebook such as Whatsup & Instagram been affected?
    • What about Tik Tok? How has their growth in Asia Pacific like?
    • Do you think that Tik Tok will face significant headwinds in the US similar to Huawei?
