RETAIL REBOOT SUMMIT 2026:
A BACKGROUND

Now in its second year, Retail Reboot Summit brings together the people shaping how retail works in a tech-first world. It’s where retailers, marketers, operators and enablers meet to share what’s working, what’s not and what’s next.

The conversations span customer experience, checkout, operations, data, design and sustainability.

They flow through:

MarTech – where customer connection meets creative automation
RetailStack – the full tech foundation powering modern retail
AppliedAI – real-world intelligence driving retail precision
This is where challenges turn into breakthroughs and the next phase of retail takes shape.

DISCOVER THE SIX SPARKS

We believe there are six Sparks rooted in real retail tech challenges that are igniting the next era of retail transformation:

The Ops Spark: Store ops, workforce, inventory and supply chain
The Data Spark: Forecasting, analytics, AI tools and cybersecurity
The Product Spark: Sourcing, pricing, assortment and design
The Green Spark: Sustainability, ESG and operational efficiency

Each Spark is a space to meet the right people and start the right conversations.
