  • Immersive Brand Experiences & the Aspirational Shopper
    WPP GLOBAL RETAIL FORUM MAY 5 & 6 2016 EDEN ROC RESORT MIAMI IMMERSIVE BRAND EXPERIENCES & THE ASPIRATIONAL SHOPPER THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS! PLATINUM SPONSORS GOLD SPONSORS SILVER SPONSOR SESSION SPONSORS DESIGN PARTNER PR SPONSOR WELCOME It is my pleasure to welcome you to WPP’s Global Retail Forum, hosted by The Store. We’ve curated a range of topics and cases that represent the leading international trends in retail. With our theme, “Immersive Brand Experiences & The Aspirational Shopper,” we hope to deliver both innovation and inspiration. The sessions today and tomorrow will highlight how data, content and technology are having a huge impact on the ways retail marketers can reach shoppers, and how shoppers experience retail. Brands are under pressure to stay relevant and engage, but by looking ahead to the new tools and technology adoption, the possibilities for personalization are endless. The importance of creativity has never been more critical as we look at the application of technology in our environment. The future of retail will optimize physical stores, with increased emphasis of “soft” digital experiences within them. In this session, we will also look at retail in the context of society. Retail helps facilitate the fundamental need for people to connect with one another. The rise of social networks and Big Data enables marketers to not only have a better understanding of consumers but to engage in long-term shared values that can foster innovation and open up new markets. Please open your mind to the ideas presented today and feel free to ask questions. Even if you work in different categories than our speakers cover, there will be many concepts to apply to your business.
