IGD Convention 2012

Book your places today

It’s been a tough few years and it’s not getting easier.

The pessimists’ prophecy of a ‘lost decade’ for the economy appears increasingly realistic. The global battle for resources keeps intensifying and new technologies continue to disrupt long-established businesses.

The social and psychological effects of these changes are severe and the public is setting ever more testing expectations of businesses.

Consumer goods companies are at the heart of all this and given the critical role they play, need to be in the lead.

Fortunately, solutions are available and a brighter future is possible but only if we face up to our challenges.

At IGD’s 2012 Convention, we’ll tackle the really tough questions, including:

  • Can we build a better version of capitalism and take our consumers with us?
  • What will be the impact of a prolonged period of depressed demand and digital innovation on the shape of the retail sector?
  • How can we strengthen consumer loyalty at a time of heightened price sensitivity, information transparency and instant feedback?
  • Can businesses work together constructively in these conditions or will the pressures tear us apart?

The audience will participate with the aid of interactive voting technology, to ensure their voices are heard and their answers considered.

To ensure delegate comfort, capacity at the event will be restricted. The event always sells out well in advance, so book your places early.
