About this Event

Ecommerce Summit North is the followup to our London summit, bringing the conversation, insights, and innovation to the northern retail community.

The summit features retail practitioners, academics, fractional ecommerce specialists, and technical experts across PPC, Google Shopping, logistics, manufacturing, CRM, finance, sustainability, and globalisation.

The evening roundtable provides a confidential, high value environment for CEOs, founders, and directors to discuss challenges, share experiences, and build meaningful commercial relationships.

This event is designed for professionals across fashion, FMCG, luxury, health & beauty, home & lifestyle, and consumer electronics who want to sharpen their strategic thinking and connect with peers.
