PARTNERS 2025

Program

The main stage program combines insights directly from the community with inspiring scientific presentations. We strategically focus on best practices and reference customers from our partners to showcase real success stories and practical solutions. Deep dives and master classes facilitate in-depth knowledge exchange, where our partners, together with leading retail companies, present their innovative strategies.

Instead of a traditional exhibition, we are focusing on an interactive experience area where partners can showcase their solutions in a practical context. Small, easily accessible brand spaces create room for authentic showcases and informal exchange – right where the expert discussions take place.

First-class community events in the evening promote informal networking and create connections that last beyond the conference.
