Since 2007, the World Retail Congress has been the global meeting place for retail’s most influential leaders. Designed for C-Suite navigating a fast-changing landscape, the programme tackles the most critical issues facing retail today and tomorrow. It features fresh perspectives not just from inside retail, but from the worlds of economics, academia, politics and NGOs.
Asia is at the cutting edge of key retail trends, experiences and tech that are reshaping the industry.
Asia is also highly competitive and fast moving. From the many high-level conversations the World Retail Congress team has had with retailers in Asia, it is clear there are few opportunities for senior leaders to come together in a non-competitive way to discuss how the industry can focus on the growth-drivers that will open up an exciting future for retail across Asia.
The World Retail Congress is therefore convening a special “World Retail Lab Asia” dedicated to not only showcasing the strengths of retail across Asia but to also provide the opportunity for retailers to collectively engage in discussions on the vision for retail to 2030 and what needs to be done to make that roadmap a reality.
The World Retail Lab Asia will provide inspiration, guidance and vision for retailers across Asia but also globally.
