So you say you want a revolution?
Introducing Meetup
Looking for your next tech transformation to skyrocket your product offering and customer experience? How does thousands of retail tech’s brightest minds in one location sound?
Meetup at Shoptalk Europe is Europe’s largest and most advanced meetings programme to ever exist in retail. But thousands of retail innovators doesn’t need to mean thousands of unsolicited meeting requests or AI gimmicks underdelivering expected valuable connections.
Taking the guesswork out of networking, removing the risk of wasted minutes and putting you 100% in control, Meetup democratises the struggle to meet the right people and companies. Both you and who you want to meet first confirm to us that you see the business value in being connected, and then we do all the hard work scheduling your business meetings for you.
So whether you’re looking for a game-changing tech solution, wanting to connect with a fellow retailer or brand, hoping to hire or seeking investment, we’ll ensure you are connected to the right people at the right time.
Free passes for retailers and brands
If you’re responsible for procuring the latest innovations in your brand, you can attend Europe’s leading retail show completely FREE! We’ll cover your ticket, hotel and travel costs and facilitate eight on-site double opt-in meetings with cutting edge solution providers of your choice.
Tabletalks: Join in on conversations around pressing industry topics
You, a round table and a curated selection of retail game changers obsessed with all things innovation. Fewer conversations are more impactful than Tabletalks. Collaborate with your industry peers and move the needle through shared insight on the topics that matter most.
