Join our expert panel as Alchemmy partners with More2 to discuss Gen Z and the Future of Retail. The pandemic has transformed the commercial landscape, blurring the lines between physical and digital and disrupting spending and supply.
Our event series will explore evolving consumer behaviour, with a focus on how Gen Z are leading indicators of change; as digital and social media natives, experience hungry and early adopters of the most innovative retail approaches. We look at what retailers can learn from their newest customers and employees, and what this means for their proposition, both now and in the future. You can read our report on Gen Z and the Future of Retail here.
We will be discussing the following questions:
- Will customers compromise Values for Value in a cost-of-living crisis?
- Is Automation the answer to unlock growth?
- Will the metaverse be the next frontier for retail?
The evening will be a chance to learn, discuss and participate as we explore the challenges facing the retail world today, all with the backdrop of London skyline. An event not to miss!
