New Retail has been a fusion of ideas, viewpoints and tried and true retail case studies. A wealth of knowledge on how to do better and be better in business in the transformative age we found ourselves today.

What a terrific event -well laid out, great venue, good location within the complex, spacious (not tripping over stands and people), good mix of content and excellent food (that always helps!).

The Only Event You’ll Need to Attend this Year

Why spend your time and money on multiple events in one year when you can go to one place to get decision makers from retail through to e-commerce, supply chain and fulfilment?

Why February?

We know retailers are busy. From previous research, retailers indicated that February is the best time for learning. This is a pause from major Christmas campaigns. This event is a great way to kick-start the year after time off and an opportunity to be inspired, form partnerships and prepare for the end of the financial year, and year to come.

Why Melbourne?

You’ll be positioned close to the mainstage hosting the top thought leaders in the industry – some who are travelling across the globe to share their stories. These prime positions are exclusive and will host the highest level of delegate traffic.
