How retailers view their store portfolios and what they really want from real estate is the subject of our latest one-day conference, to be held at TH Real Estate, London on 18 October.
The event will feature IKEA Centres, Made.com, Nike, Dr Martens, retail veteran Vince Gunn, TH Real Estate, Amazon expert Natalie Berg, global grocery analyst Bryan Roberts and many more.
It is the second of three fantastic events Retail Property Analyst is organising and for a limited time only we are offering a fantastic deal. Each event is priced at £349 + VAT but if your company attends the next two we are offering an autumn special of £500 + VAT to cover both events.
Our final event of the year is on 29 November: iGen: Retail Proptech explained.
Our events start at the leading edge of change. In just one day you will get a full overview of the market and analysis of how the big trends and issues are impacting European retail real estate.
They are an essential day for those developing and investing in retail property, who want to understand the future.
This year we will be looking at the new directions with global Amazon expert and author Natalie Berg as she examines the way Amazon will continue to redefine retail.
Grocers have been a key anchor for shopping centres and retail destinations but with signs that internationalisation may be dead, Bryan Roberts, global insights director at TCC Global, pieces together the future shape of food retailing in Europe and the US.
Legacy retailers have been downsizing their estates – by fair means or foul depending on your perspective – while online and brand players have started to leverage the power of physical estates. Rob Bevan managing director at Javelin Group (Accenture Strategy), considers what it means for the size, type and location of retailing going forwards.
With so many different players examining the role of real estate, retail veteran Vince Gunn looks at the lessons from his long career for everyone from Mothercare to sofa.com.
IKEA’s development arm IKEA Centres has been working hand-in-hand with its retail partners to create meeting places, spaces and places that not only attract consumers but help the retailer transition from selling stuff to create a better everyday life. Carl Joensson, global research & concepts manager, IKEA Centres, explains how they are doing it.
We will be announcing more retailers and our final top speakers in the next few days.
Packed with content, our event provides an intensive one-day overview of the major themes influencing retail real estate development and investment.
Mark Faithfull, editor of Retail Property Analyst, says: “Our international cast of speakers will explain how retailers are really thinking out real estate, what they intend to do with it and whether the store is ready for renaissance or extinction.”
