Warc subscribers in Asia shared similar interests as their international colleagues this year, checking popular articles on effective trends in social media and innovation, though a paper on Chinese trends also made a strong showing.
While four of the five most-read 2013 Warc papers in Asia had a global focus, an in-depth examination of ten consumer trends in China was the third most popular article of the year. Researchers from Shanghai-based MEC China, the media agency, argued that safety will be a high priority for Chinese consumers following repeated food safety scares and also that the growth of social media will encourage a trend towards people wanting to learn more about other cultures.
