The theme coming out of the pandemic for retailers is resiliency, and as retailers forge new partnerships, stay close to their customers and continue to innovate, NRF Retail Converge is the place where these cutting-edge strategies come together.
NRF Retail Converge, to be held virtually June 21-25, is a new event that features a deep exploration of multiple specialties within the retail industry. The event offers focused tracks for supply chain, loss prevention, customer experience, retail technology, cybersecurity, marketing, ecommerce, store operations, and corporate strategy and leadership, and also brings all these disciplines together for visionary, high-level keynotes on the future of retail.
