Come join us at the first Shoptalk in Europe

Shoptalk seeks to support and drive development of the retail and ecommerce industry. It covers the transformational trends, technologies and business models that reshape how consumers discover, shop and buy in an age of digital disruption. On the 9th-11th of October, for the first time ever Shoptalk will take place in Europe; Copenhagen, Denmark.

Established retailers and brands, (venture-backed direct-to-consumer) startups, tech and internet companies, investors, media, analysts, and others will come together to learn, collaborate and evolve. Shoptalk Europe is anticipated to welcome 2,000+ attendees, including 250+ speakers, from across the world, among them several members of our team and startups from our accelerator program.

Among the 250 speakers, our very own Director of the Global Innovation Community, Andreas Wuerfel will take the stage on Tuesday 10th of October to explore and discuss the topic “Innovation within Big Retail”.

Throughout the three days Shoptalk holds a Startup Pitch contest, where selected early stage retail and commerce tech startups will pitch their ideas. The contest features 15 handpicked companies with pioneering technologies, products, and business models. These companies compete for two €25,000 prizes. Three startups from METRO Accelerator’s debut Retail class of 2017 have been selected to pitch;
Sensefinity, Oriient and Sensei. Additional Startups from the program will be present to showcase their products in the Exhibit Hall:
IamBot, Epinium, Justsnap, Kptncook, and Whole Surplus.
