The British Library is set to host a series of stellar guest speakers from the online retail sector during an evening aimed at budding ecommerce entrepreneurs.

The founders of ASOS, Moonpig and Decoded, among others will share their tips on how to harness the power of the UK’s digital market, which is one of the most active in the world.

According to Internet Retailing Magazine, almost a quarter of UK retail sales will happen online by 2016, creating total revenues of nearly £150 billion.

The event is held in partnership with Barclays and will take place on Tuesday 25 February, and will be available to view online. Tickets are £10 each.

Isabel Oswell, head of business audiences at the British Library, said: “We’re thrilled that this fantastic panel of internet icons has agreed to offer their expertise to our own audience of budding entrepreneurs and growing businesses.”

The event will be chaired by Caspian Media co-founder Matthew Rock.
