Retail has no shortage of AI ideas. The hard part is turning them into growth. At Tech for Retail, we show you how leading retail, CPG and luxury brands move from pilots to measurable results, and what it takes to get there.
Come find us at booth Z47 for live demos, candid conversations with partners and clients, and a clear view of how The Intelligent Enterprise puts AI at the core of how retail operates.

On the booth: what you'll find at Z47
The Intelligent Enterprise
AI is no longer the bottleneck. The operating model is. Our experts walk you through how Run, Operate, Grow and Lead connect data, decisions and execution into one system, and how retailers can start where value is most trapped.
Fashion Forward, Fashion Frozen, with Lectra
Lectra and Valtech are about to publish a white paper together. Join us to discuss what it reveals about an industry caught between creative ambition and operational inertia.

Who speaks for the house?
In 2031, a client's AI agent could already know what she likes. If your assistant only tells her the same thing, what is left of your power to create desire?
Pascal Malotti, our Global Retail and Luxury Strategy Lead, shares the point of view he presented at the Journal du Luxe European Symposium. Personalization that only mirrors the client leads to sameness. The alternative is Authored Commerce: AI that knows more about the house than about the client, and carries the intent of studios and ateliers all the way to her.
You'll leave with:
-
A simple test to run on your own assistant: when it explains a recommendation, who is the answer about?
-
A clear line between Mirror Commerce and Authored Commerce.
-
Questions to ask your teams about what your house transmits to every system that speaks in its name.
