Retail Marketing Conference 2023

POPAI's flagship conference dedicated to sharing knowledge and networking returned for 2023.

An excellent day of sharing unique best practice insight into recent retail marketing campaigns and in-store innovations, with in-depth case study presentations and panel debate from industry experts.

Our annual conference always draws a large, mixed audience of industry professionals from across the in-store spectrum and this year was no different!

With plenty of opportunities to network through the supply chain with like-minded individuals, the event was a must-attend for POPAI members and the wider in-store/ shopper industry.
