Previously the campaign meant the launch to retail was through vending machines that popped up in cities all around the world. This also included online sales. Now, Snap has chosen to set up pop-up shops inside one of the United Kingdoms most iconic stores, Harrods, in London. This is the first time you can purchase the technology outside of a vending machine, showing that Snap is implementing a new retail approach.

In Snack Media’s blog post this week we looked at how important it is to introduce Artificial Intelligence into your digital strategy.
