Created by retailers, for retailers under the expert guidance of industry advisors, The Retail Summit does things differently.

Getting you closer access to inspirational leaders, highlighting the most innovative and impactful stories in retail today and hosting a range of networking opportunities to support meaningful connections.

The Retail Summit is a global, content-led event for c-level executives from across retail to come together to learn, connect and debate. Bringing together +1000 of the brightest minds of the global retail community, it is the premier platform to shape the future of retail.

As retail emerges from the seismic impact of the global pandemic, the retail landscape has changed – permanently and profoundly. Those businesses who pivoted quickly, prioritised their brand’s purpose and capitalised on soaring digital penetration are reaping the rewards and taking market share.
 
Against this backdrop of innovation and change, it has never been more vital for global retail leaders to come together to share personal insights, meet face-to-face with industry disruptors and debate future trends.
 
The meeting place for this years 2022 Summit at the the iconic Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai – a truly fitting platform for engaging and entertaining this congregation of the greatest minds in retail.
