Celebrating its ninth year, Australia’s 2017 Online Retailer event will be hosted on 26th-27th July at the ICC Sydney Exhibition Centre, Darling Drive, Sydney.
 

With over 2,000 people passing through its doors last year, Online Retailer Sydney is Australia’s original, largest and most established exhibition and conference for technology led retailers and retail enablers. It’s here that the Retail Industry comes together each year to learn, exchange ideas, share industry trends, shape connections and walk away with a throng of tools and information to help them work smarter.

 

Focussing on the latest in e-commerce technology, digital marketing and clever retailing solutions, the two-day event unites visionaries and industry disruptors, all the while exposing the global trends and challenges across an extensive array of topics.

 

This year the Online Retailer Exhibition (free to attend for retailers) will see over 100 leading solution providers on the show floor, including ORACLE + NetSuite, Australia Post, Magento, Catch of the Day, Afterpay and many more.

The  impressive line-up of retail specialists also includes speakers from leading brands such as IKEA, Jetstar, Menulog, Adidas Group, Supré, General Pants, Super Cheap Auto and Thankyou,  to name a few, sharing their own experiences and invaluable insights.

 

Online Retailer Event Director, Alice Kuepper says, “The event will see a highly-esteemed line-up of new speakers delving into extremely current themes, including Artificial Intelligence, Mobile Innovation, sustainable ecommerce business models, the future of omni-channel retailing and digitally-enabled retailing both online and offline.”
