Topics & Focus Areas

Why Attend
For a CIO, CDO or head of ecommerce at a retailer or consumer brand, Shoptalk Spring compresses a quarter of vendor discovery into three days: the hosted programme books eight 15-minute meetings with tech providers you choose, and qualifying leaders attend free with $750 toward travel. The curriculum centres on how AI is changing retail, alongside omnichannel and retail media, so it suits teams shortlisting AI, ecommerce and retail-media vendors. Vendors, by contrast, pay $3,245 and should budget for meeting-driven pipeline rather than keynote exposure.
