Time To Play – Gamifying Retail
We have all contributed to how technology has disrupted the traditional world of retail. But in the shadow of the recent pandemic, technology has emerged as retail's saviour. As retailers scramble to accelerate their digital capability, a superpower exists that most know yet few have mastered: the art of Gamification. This practical keynote provides the latest thinking on how gamification is changing the world of retail across its entire value chain and reshaping organisations. Learn how to use simple techniques for your customers today and leverage gamification as the winning effect for your business, culture, and bottom line.
Game Changer
Daniel's keynote focuses on learning about the challenges currently faced by retailers. It proposes a detailed roadmap that any CEO or senior executive can adopt to ensure that their organisation is best placed to emerge from a period of meteoric change and establish itself as a leading force, a winner, and a game changer. With its motivational tone, the Game Changer keynote is about inspiring change and making tangible progress, believing that it is within everyone’s gift to be the game changer.
Is Shopping Fun Anymore
The keynote distils the learnings from thousands of disruptive retail technologies around the world, recent retail initiatives, and the key learnings from a forerunner and undoubted leader in creating digital experiences: the video game business. “Is Shopping Fun Anymore?” will challenge your thinking about how and why emotion must be placed at the very core of your digital strategy whilst providing you with the key tools to make it happen. It will be one of the most important keynotes this year.
The Retail Power Of "We"
The keynote proposes a step-by-step framework that retailers can adopt fully or use to gauge their progress.
