Summary

The Art & Science of Retail Success

Consumers have fundamentally changed the way they shop and are increasingly dictating when, where and how they engage with brands. As a result, a gap is emerging between millions of individuals expectations and the ability of businesses to meet them.

As the advantage increasingly resides in customer experience and usability, companies must understand who their customers are and what they’re buying with a cross-channel and cross-device focus. The solution is the ability to create a single customer view, yet most brands are still on the starting blocks when it comes to building a truly Omnichannel experience.

At this breakfast event our expert speakers and audience explored ever-changing buyer behaviour, as well as the art and science of bringing together data, creativity and technology to help address the gap between retailer & customer.
