The 65th International Retail Summit identifies the crucial challenges for tomorrow’s retail and answers questions like:

• What does Borderless Retail mean, and how does it work?
• What new products, services, and concepts are evolving at the interface of mobility, consumption, private and work life? How does robotization change retail?
• Which global consumer trends are relevant – and which ones aren’t?
• What start-ups are challenging traditional retailers?

Expect answers from industry giants and promising young entrepreneurs: Douglas Rushkoff, bestselling author and thought leader of the digitalized world, will hold the keynote speech. Food retail pioneer Oscar Farinetti, founder of Eataly, shows how to combine «local» and «global» successfully. Other big names include Andrew Parkinson (Operations Director FC Liverpool), André Maeder (CEO KaDeWe) oder Christophe Cornu (CCO Nespresso).
