How we're doing things

Intent isn't just about a getting new perspective. It's about appropriateness and relationships. So this is how we're approaching our first summit. Less one-way communication, more conversation.

We鈥檒l put you on tables with people who share your interests. So you meet who you should meet. So you can solve problems together, with expert moderators.

Event principles

More like a wedding than a work thing

We're bringing together our people for a celebration of something we all love: finding a new edge.

Note: If you're open to thinking (and doing things)聽differently, then you are "our people". Come meet others like you. You'll fit right in.

It's about the people in the room tent

You know how we go on about stages? Well, the stage isn't what matters here.

The talks will be excellent, but just wait for the conversations. We'll curate your table to make sure you meet people with the same goals.

For ecommerce operators only

The only way this works is if we get enough of the right people together.

So you need to be experienced and at a brand to get one of the 150 tickets. But while you will need to contribute to the conversation, you won't need to pay a penny.

What it's all about

We believe ecommerce is entrenched in a way of thinking. And it's an approach that limits our potential.

We're bringing together speakers and roundtables to show how brands are breaking free of this. Taking inspiration from other industries. Marginal gains. Finding value that others overlook.

If you're after a creative, competitive edge within eCommerce, this is where you'll get it. We think we're the right people to bring this community together.
