Why did you decide to launch RetailX Nexus?

The driving force behind RetailX Nexus was to establish a safe and honest space for people to discuss and evaluate important issues. We wanted to develop an event that spoke to the most senior people from the world’s most dynamic and high profile retail brands. These are not the type of people who generally attend conferences, but hold the most impact when it comes to organisational change and strategic direction. To achieve this, we had to pick the right topics, evolve the format and curate the delegate list by hand.
What plans are in place should the COVID situation deteriorate?

We have made a committed decision to hold this event in an unrestricted environment in order to deliver its goals and potential. If for any reason the pandemic, government regulations or indeed pure common sense dictate that hosting the event is unsafe or unwise then it will be postponed until such time as it is.

The venue is of course fully compliant with all cleansing regulations at all times and here is their policy should you want to check.

The whole point of the event in person is that it will be permitted in a full and unrestricted fashion – if it is not, RetailX Nexus 2021 will be postponed, as it will not be able to deliver on its promise
How long is each of the sessions?

We have deliberately focused on 3 important topics so that we can allow 75 minutes per topic. This allows for topics to be explored through the eye’s of subject matter experts, inspirational retailers, and real conversations that can achieve outcomes.
How can I get involved?

I'm not a retailer, can I attend?

We only have 100 delegate places available, so we need to restrict attendance to retailer representatives who have a strategic remit within their business. Delegates applying from the RetailX Top500 will be given priority alongside fast-growth retailers who are inspiring change through an innovative approach. Full details of our Retail criteria can be found here: Criteria

If you are representing a business that supplies into the retail market, we have a limited number of sponsorship opportunities that we would be delighted to talk you through. Please contact:

Is the event really slide free?

Yes, we feel that slides can distract from the message being delivered. We want attendees to focus on the words and discussion rather than focus on passive PowerPoint delivery.
What is the Chatham House Rule?

The entire RetailX Nexus event will be held under Chatham House Rule. We kindly ask all attendees to abide by the following rule:

‘When a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be revealed.’
