We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Shoptalk Europe, to be held on October 9-11, 2017 in Copenhagen. While that’s still one year away, we’re already confirming incredible speakers that include the CEOs of successful venture-backed startups such as Lyst and Vestiaire, senior executives from Internet heavyweights including Pinterest and Google, and leaders of major retailers, including the CEO of the world’s most famous department store, Harrods.
We are especially excited to launch Shoptalk Europe in Copenhagen, one of the hottest European destinations and where we hosted the inaugural Money20/20 Europe earlier this year. Money20/20 Europe instantly became Europe’s largest consumer payments and FinTech event.
Shoptalk Europe showcases the very best of European and international retail and ecommerce trends and technologies, bringing together an unprecedented group of leaders and visionaries from established retailers and brands, pioneering startups, prominent tech and Internet companies, prolific venture capital investors and other key stakeholders.
Just like our U.S. event, Shoptalk Europe breaks important new ground and consolidates a disparate dialogue and fragmented community. It’s the first pan-European event to cover the local, regional and global disruptive evolution of how consumers discover, shop and buy. This fills a major gap for the European and global retail and ecommerce ecosystem, just as the U.S. event did for the American market.
Shoptalk Europe will be held at the Bella Center in Copenhagen on October 9-11, 2017, following the U.S. event, which will take place at the Aria in Las Vegas on March 19-22, 2017. Each event will recur annually, approximately six months apart, providing the worldwide community of retail and ecommerce innovators two opportunities every year to stay current with a rapidly evolving landscape. Copenhagen is an easily accessible city, and the Bella Center offers an environment conducive to learning and collaboration. Located less than 10 minutes from the airport, the Bella also offers an onsite hotel or attendees can choose from a variety of nearby hotels in every price range.
We expect more than 2,000 attendees, including over 250 speakers and 200 CEOs, at Shoptalk Europe’s inaugural three-day event, which will provide an unparalleled platform for everyone to learn, network, collaborate and evolve. Attendees will include startups as well as large established retailers and brands from throughout Europe and around the globe. Our audience will also include U.S. tech companies and consumer-facing startups looking to enter and scale in the European market.Some of the themes to be covered at Shoptalk Europe include:
