 ion Venue Fees Partner Documentation About the conference Retail 2020: Sha
 ping future markets with man and machine On the polarised issue of man vs.
  machine\, the world of retail is undergoing a revolution powered by both 
 extremes. Digitisation and technologisation have gained as thorough a grip
  on the economy as on the everyday life of the consumer. Ever since\, reta
 il has been exploring the machine's apparently limitless possibilities. At
  the same time\, people are regaining their importance in retail. Customer
 s want credible companies that they can trust. They long for genuine encou
 nters and authentic products. Where they cannot find them\, they create ne
 w patterns of consumption and\, as prosumers\, transform entire sectors 
 – always with the help of technology. To flourish in this new environmen
 t\, human qualities such as courage and creativity are needed. Equally imp
 ortant is an understanding of the increasingly intelligent machine: "Progr
 amme or be programmed" – in other words\, control the machine or it will
  control you. Retail 2020 will re-think man vs machine\, viewing them as o
 ne. Tomorrow's retailers will know how to use the ever more rapidly develo
 ping technology and how to foster the creativity of their employees and cu
 stomers – for new\, disruptive business models. At the 64th Internationa
 l Retail Summit we offer visions for retail 2020. And we will show how com
 panies can harness both human and machine intelligence to their advantage.

  Retail 2020: Shaping future markets with man and machine On the polarised
  issue of man vs. machine\, the world of retail is undergoing a revolution
  powered by both extremes. Digitisation and technologisation have gained a
 s thorough a grip on the economy as on the everyday life of the consumer. 
 Ever since\, retail has been exploring the machine's apparently limitless 
 possibilities. At the same time\, people are regaining their importance in
  retail. Customers want credible companies that they can trust. They long 
 for genuine encounters and authentic products. Where they cannot find them
 \, they create new patterns of consumption and\, as prosumers\, transform 
 entire sectors – always with the help of technology. To flourish in this
  new environment\, human qualities such as courage and creativity are need
 ed. Equally important is an understanding of the increasingly intelligent 
 machine: "Programme or be programmed" – in other words\, control the mac
 hine or it will control you. Retail 2020 will re-think man vs machine\, vi
 ewing them as one. Tomorrow's retailers will know how to use the ever more
  rapidly developing technology and how to foster the creativity of their e
 mployees and customers – for new\, disruptive business models. At the 64
 th International Retail Summit we offer visions for retail 2020. And we wi
 ll show how companies can harness both human and machine intelligence to t
 heir advantage. Customer quotes on the International Retail Summit\, which
  has been the most important sector meeting for over 60 years: "A highly s
