Dabei handelt es sich nicht nur um Technologien, sondern um viel tiefgehendere Veränderungen, die auch die Supply Chain und mitunter das Geschäftsmodell selbst betreffen.

The purpose of retail will no longer be to solely convert every customer into a buyer of goods but rather transform them into disciples of the brand itself. To begin a relationship – a dialogue that may play out in any number of buying channels; online, in-store, mobile or elsewhere. It doesn’t matter where purchases take place. What matters is that the consumer falls in LOVE with the brand and shares that love with others. The store maintains the potential to be that emotional center of gravity for the brand.
With special guests Michelle Beeson, Digital Business Strategy Analyst at Forrester and David Staunton, Head of Product Marketing at Mirakl.
2018 will be the year when retailers combine their strategies to transform the relationship they have with their customers. Omnichannel and personalisation have long been at the top of the list for any retailer wanting to maintain their position - but with online pure-players moving to have physical stores, and retailers seeking to offer more experiences to their customers, how they use these innovations will change in 2018. It is no-longer as simple as providing products, retailers now have to fight to become the destination for their customer in an increasingly crowded market.

Abstract della presentazione di Ivano Ortis, Vice President Retail, Manufacturing, Financial Insights di IDC, tenuta all'evento IDC Retail Summit 2017 di Milano il 21 giugno 2017
There is no disputing that commerce has become increasingly important to every business. But beyond having a commerce capability to support your business, does your commerce platform and technology support the future possibilities of expanding your business to cross borders?
With technology rapidly evolving, the commerce landscape has also changed dramatically, and we can only expect this speed of transformation to continue in 2016 – both in the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) landscapes.
What are the key commerce trends we can expect in 2016? What are the buyers looking for from a commerce experience? How can you start to build a solid commerce strategy that allows you to cross borders? What are some of the commerce best practices to adopt?

How to Create a More Customer-Focused Commerce ModelPerficient, Inc.
As technology seeps into every corner of our daily lives, both consumers and B2B buyers readily turn to digital commerce to find exactly what they need. And, their expectations for companies to deliver top-notch experiences grow higher by the day. While some businesses have upped their game, others are struggling to respond and digitally transform to meet these expectations.
Guest speaker, Anjali Yakkundi, an analyst with Forrester, and Steve Gatto, Perficient Digital’s Commerce & DX specialist, delivered an informative session in which they explored three ways customer experiences are changing within commerce business models. They covered:
-The key factors to help transform your customer experience

Cate Zovod, Near
When it comes to opening a new QSR location, the decision around site selection is critical — and the wrong decision can be extremely costly. For a QSR looking to significantly expand to new locations, the stakes are even higher. Founded in 1959, Little Caesars has been a popular pizza chain in the U.S. for decades. Having successfully responded to new consumer behavior in recent years, the chain is poised for rapid expansion across the U.S. and other growing markets like Canada and Mexico. With a goal to maximize ROI on the new locations, the company had to identify and prioritize sites for their new stores in a smart and scalable way. Learn how they turned to human movement data to empower teams in the U.S. and internationally to create a strategic expansion plan.

Resale is ecologically beneficial, applies to many types of merchandise and is on-trend, but we are finding that the resale of goods online isn't as profitable as in store--think photo shoot, double ship and repackaging of items. So if done right at store level, can resale be more profitable, increase foot traffic with unique offerings, and boost customer loyalty? Learn from IKEA about their in-store resale experience, hear exclusive research from WD Partners and see visual renderings that show how areas of resale can be executed in several types of merchandise categories.

You may know it as smart speaker, or the voice that tells jokes to your kids. You may think it’s a marketing channel, or only available through Big Tech.
Think again. A number of leading retailers know conversational artificial intelligence – voice assistance -- as a technology that is creating operational efficiencies (from warehouse to store), aiding employee retention, and lifting brand affinity. A technology that’s not only on the roadmap, but in implementation. (And in ways you may not expect.)
Join industry leader Vicki Cantrell and top executives from retail and entertainment as she pulls back the covers on the value of voice and retail, and explores the questions you’d ask: what’s real, what’s not, and what’s next? Where and how is this better than what we’re doing now? How do we protect the privacy of our customers – and our own data? How do we get started, and with whom?
