Retail has no shortage of AI ideas. The hard part is turning them into growth. Growth does not come from the model. It comes from who decides, who owns and how fast work moves. At Tech for Retail, see how Valtech connects strategy, operating models and technology to help retail, CPG and luxury brands move beyond pilots.
Come find us at booth Z47 for live demos, candid conversations with partners and clients. Bring a business challenge: a customer journey that stalls, content operations under pressure, or an AI initiative that won't scale. We'll tell you plainly what has to change, and where to start.
Conference
From delivery to value realization: transforming a digital organization into a growth engine
2:40 p.m. Tuesday, December 1, 2026, Room 4
Delivery is not value. Connect digital delivery to business outcomes, put a name on who owns the value, and decide what your organization changes next.

VISION
The Intelligent Enterprise
AI is no longer the bottleneck. The operating model is. Slow decisions, fragmented operations and unclear ownership kill more AI initiatives than model limits do. 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. Tell us where yours is blocked.
PARTNER CONVERSATION
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. Where does ambition freeze, and what would it take to move?
LIVE DEMOS

LUXURY FOCUS
Who speaks for the house?
Paris, 2031. A client's personal AI agent already knows 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. Knowing the client remains essential. The ambition is to help her discover something she would not have thought to ask for.
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: who owns that knowledge, and how do you measure discovery beyond immediate conversion?
