Retail’s Year in Review: What shaped us, what's next?

We’re bringing together the retail community for a one-day summit designed to take stock of the year that was and sharpen our focus on what’s coming next.

In 2025, retailers faced rising tariffs, fresh waves of global expansion, the growing power of Temu and Amazon, and a surge in retail media. Fraud risks grew, consumer expectations shifted, and the pace of change didn’t let up.

At Retail Rewind, we’ll dig into the trends that mattered most from Gen AI reshaping commerce, to supply chains being rebuilt, to payment innovation picking up speed.

We’ll explore the scramble for first-party data, real sustainability action, the next wave of marketplace strategies, and how experiential retail and workforce shifts are reshaping the industry.

Through honest conversations with retail leaders, solution partners, and market analysts, we’ll map out the shifts setting the tone for 2026 and the opportunities opening up for those ready to move.

If you’re looking for a clear, sharp recap of 2025’s defining moments and practical insights to fuel your 2026 plans – this is the room you’ll want to be in.
