Three weeks from today we’ll open Shoptalk Europe 2026 in Barcelona, and I'm looking forward to seeing you all there so soon. I’ll be interviewing some fascinating retailers at the show this year, which I’m excited to preview. Starting with Day 2, Weds 10th June, when I’ll be moderating a panel where retailers will unpack how they are evolving their businesses to provide ongoing Retail Media growth, called “Think Like An Agency, Grow Like A Retailer”. We’re going to discuss the structures & roles, processes & tools, and partnership approaches needed to win in Retail Media. My panelists will be: * Thibault Hennion, COO at Unlimitail, the global RMN joint venture between Carrefour and Publicis Groupe * Charina Lumley, MD at DOUGLAS Marketing Solutions, the pan-European beauty RMN * Amir Rasekh, MD of Nectar360, the data and media division of Sainsbury's All three bring extensive experience, expertise and insights that they are very willing to share. Please join us for what promises to be a very dynamic discussion. Of course, at Shoptalk we always want to look at topics from multiple perspectives, so this session will be immediately followed by a discussion amongst advertisers, “Brands Unfiltered on Retail Media”, featuring CPG speakers Rob Manhoudt from Procter & Gamble, Ana Afán from The Coca-Cola Company and Alejandra Tenorio from RMS Beauty, and Wiktoria Malicka, Global Retail Media Director at Coty which will be expertly moderated by Colin Lewis.
See you there!
It is going to be fun :)
