- Those with a specific challenge to crack can have their questions answered in Expert Clinics. Seasoned experts will provide bespoke advice on topics including SEO, payments, composable commerce, fraud & policy abuse, Amazon and marketplace advertising and reviews & online reputation. These 1-2-1 sessions can be booked in advance here.
- Startups looking to grow their business can find the support they need at the Reveal Lounge. This is a dedicated area of the show for independent retailers and brands who are looking for insight, inspiration, and advice to grow their businesses online. Expect a relaxed setting to network with retail professionals in the same position and share challenges and ideas.
