Overview

Discover our Retail Futures report and examine the retail landscape, where a growing number of technologies and disciplines are all converging in ways that make retail less about a transactional journey and more about a predictive, proactive and, if we get it right, positive conversation.

Our new Retail Futures report details nascent trends in physical retail, from brands using Open-door HQs as a retail platform and a new era of decentralised taste-making, to the high street’s sustainability experience hubs and the emergence of Meta-phygital Retail.

Alongside rising trends for retail, this report also features our latest sector macrotrend, EQ-Commerce, which explores how innovative retailers are using technology to create EQ-Commerce journeys where every touchpoint is
a learning opportunity, and AI caters for customers’ idiosyncratic needs and wants at scale.

Retail analysis across key markets, case studies and consumer insights combined to help you understand and grasp business success in the years ahead. The report also includes:

: Trends Rising 

Open-door HQs, Resale Redux and Mega- phygital Retail are among the many retail trends offering brands, retailers and marketers a chance to reconnect with customers as the cost of living crisis continues to dominate purchase agendas.

: Macrotrend: EQ-Commerce

Innovative retailers are using technology to create EQ-Commerce journeys where every touchpoint is
a learning opportunity, and AI caters for customers’ idiosyncratic needs and wants at scale.

: Drivers

Embedded AI, economic cutbacks, hyper- personalisation and the continued ease with which consumers are happy to shop in cross-channel categories are all shaping the EQ-Commerce trend and category.

: Strategic Implications

As consumers seek more personalised interactions,
we identify the strategic actions and implications you need to take to create more meaningful engagement with your customers on their journey to purchase.
