Keynote at Ometria conference

Ian Jindal1 Comment

It was my pleasure to open the Ometria Lifecycle conference with a keynote on ‘Connecting with the Connected Customer’ – one of my persistent themes, focused on how retailers and brands can connect effectively and profitably with demanding consumers. Taking insights from the IREU Top500 I looked at 6 challenges that retailers need to overcome in order to succeed.

Congratulations to Ometria on a full house, great organisation and an a fantastic vibe to the day. Looking forward to our upcoming collaboration on White Papers and continuing this thread of conversation.

Speaking at ShopTalk, Copenhagen

Ian JindalLeave a comment

ShopTalk had their first European ‘outing’ in Copenhagen in October, with a three-day event that gathered some 2.500 delegates for three days of networking, meetings, keynotes and presentations. The IR team was there for the whole event and we were busy from dawn until (nearly the next) dawn catching up with retailers and innovative vendors from Europe and the US.

I gave a speech on the final day with six lessons from the IREU Top500 ranking of Europe’s multichannel retailers, brands and ecommerce pureplays.
