giluk, president of coca-cola greater china and mongolia, was invited to give a speech at the opening ceremony. "the theme of this conference, 'innovation of wisdom and quality', perfectly explains the secret of success in the advertising industry. continuous innovation is the unremitting pursuit of coca-cola. innovation is our brand gene, the secret formula that keeps coca-cola alive in its 138-year history, and the source of our motivation to bring refreshing experiences and positive changes to the world," giluk said.
in terms of innovation, giluk said that coca-cola has always adhered to three major innovation principles, namely, being consumer-oriented, embracing new technologies and innovating in a reasonable way. among them, being consumer-oriented is the core principle of coca-cola. "since returning to mainland china in 1979, we have been upgrading and innovating the way and platform to interact with consumers, ensuring that we fully understand consumer preferences and provide drinks suitable for various occasions based on changing consumer needs." giluk said.
when it comes to embracing new technologies to drive innovation, coca-cola has also been working hard. as one of the earliest companies in the fast-moving consumer goods industry to embrace artificial intelligence, coca-cola uses the new technology of generative ai to interact with consumers through innovative marketing activities.
