We'll move beyond the buzzwords and show you how leading brands are using data to revolutionize the digital journey. You'll learn to implement smarter search functions, create a truly tailored discovery experience, and optimize your checkout process to maximize conversions and drive tangible growth. Discover how to turn your customer data from a static asset into your most powerful revenue-generating tool.

UNIFIED COMMERCE: BALANCING MARKETPLACES, RETAIL STORES, QUICK COMMERCE, AND RETAIL MEDIA
There's no magic number for how much each channel—whether it's a marketplace, retail store, or quick commerce—should contribute to revenue. Experts will explore how to balance the scalability of marketplaces, the experiential value of retail stores, the speed of Q-commerce, and the targeted reach of retail media to optimize consumer engagement and ROI. This session moves beyond the "seamless experience" buzzword to tackle the real challenge of unified commerce: Profitability. The discussion will cover data-driven channel allocation, consumer behavior insights, and the role of retail media in driving brand visibility, while addressing challenges like cost management, attribution, and seamless customer experiences across platforms to build loyalty and maximize profitability.
