A possible future…

At best you only ever see50% of a supermarket

offer in-store

Grown-up tech

So is tech really worth it?

…should stores feel like this?

The store is the star

Personal experiences

So what does it all mean?

• Technology is more than in-store screens• In-store experiences are what count• Retailers need to give shoppers a reason to

come back – there will always be competition• Simple ideas do not have to be cost-

prohibitive• Technology is only part of store design – it can

be used effectively or ineffectively

Thanks for listening
