2. Bringing the Future to the Present
About RetailNet Group
RNG’s analysts are highly-focused on the future retail landscape –Physical and
Digital—in order to advise retailers and brands as they plan and transform their
businesses around the world…so they can change before the change.
Our Process
RNG delivers analysis and insights of the external world with our “STEIP”
framework to understand how retail markets will evolve over the next 12 - 60
months. We have identified the key Societal, Technological, Economic, Industry
and Political Drivers of Change which will shape each market, and we then
provide insight on how these drivers will affect retail strategy and, in turn, the
implications to leading brands.
Our Research
We publish our research, data and insights on RetailNetGroup.com, an easy-to-
use, content-deep site that brings the future to you. Our site also enables you to
connect with our Analysts when you need personal support. 2
