Is this conference intended more for small or large companies? This question was already addressed in 1994 when the first annual event was being prepared. The still valid answer is that Retail Summit is for everyone who has the ambition to succeed, to improve themselves, their company, and the market environment. The size or form of company ownership doesn't matter, nor whether it operates in the "brick-and-mortar" or digital world.
The preparation of the Retail Summit is in hands of 2 entities: the Czech Confederation of Commerce and Tourism and the company Blue Events, which provides its secretariat and is responsible for financing and organisation of the event.
A most welcome part of the Retail Summit is the accompanying program in particular, a Gala evening, with the Mastercard Retailer of the Year Awards.
Changed its name twice, logo three times, and the venue five times. It stood at the very opening of the free market and the beginning of modern commerce in the 1990s. It opened eyes and new opportunities. Take a look at how the number of Retail Summit participants has evolved.
