Our ambition is to accelerate Dyson in the social space across the Benelux. To achieve this, we need to constantly innovate, interrogate, and improve and lead the way within our region and globally.  Social media is a critical channel that will help us continue to build onto our strong band reputation, acquire new audiences as we grow existing and enter new categories.
