Retail’s strategic meeting place for AI. 

AI has moved from isolated experiments to a strategic leadership issue. Retail companies now need to decide how AI should be integrated into the business, how data and governance should be organised, which capabilities must be built and where investment can create measurable value. 

AI Retail Forum 2026 brings senior decision-makers together for practical perspectives on leadership, customer experience, organisation, operations and competitiveness. The programme is planned to combine international outlooks with Swedish and Nordic retail experience, dedicated Fashion & Retail and Grocery & Chain Retail sessions, partner contributions, breakout sessions and networking. 

Key themes

  • Strategy and leadership
  • Customer experience and trust
  • Operations and supply chain
