Luxury and premium brands and retailers know that innovation is no longer optional; it’s the foundation of growth.

In a sector built on precision and heritage, technology must move faster without losing what makes elevated retail experiences unique. This session brings together senior leaders from leading luxury and premium brands to share what they're looking for in the next generation of technology partners alongside practical insights on reshaping collaboration models, shortening implementation cycles, and turning technology from a long-term ambition into a near-term advantage.
