Against the background of the first economic crisis of the global era and the resulting uncertainty in many markets, it is clear that retailers can no longer operate or think in isolation.
Launched in 2007 the Congress has become the annual platform for the most senior executives within the retail industry to come together to share best practice, make lasting business contacts and exchange ideas on the most crucial global issues.
Over the last two years the Congress has brought together over 2000 attendees, including retailers and their suppliers from over 50 countries and active in more than 90. In only two years the event has attracted a prestigious line-up of world-class speakers, including Anders Dalvig of Ikea, Mickey Drexler of J.Crew, Jose Luis Duran of Carrefour, Sir Philip Green of Arcadia, Sir Terry Leahy of Tesco, Motoya Okada of AEON, BS Nagesh of Shoppers’ Stop and Mike Ullman of JCPenney.
The 2009 Congress will take place in Barcelona on 6-8 May 2009. With its reputation and influence growing around the world it is set to continue to attract industry leaders, in even greater numbers.
