" summary

Panelists compare concrete results: the global art market is ~ $65B with online at about $1.57B (roughly 2.4%) and projected growth to ~$3.7B, and companies pursue distinct plays — a switch from gallery listings to an online auctions pivot to capture higher transaction revenue, a Pandora‑style genome recommendation engine to turn casual browsers into buyers, and heavy use of charity auctions that have generated near $30M for causes and $300M+ in bidding activity for one platform, plus a $1.1M Syria campaign with $800K online.
