"The retail industry stands at a defining crossroads—one where reinvention is no longer optional but essential," said Deborah Weinswig, CEO and Founder of Coresight Research. "NextGen is not just a conference—it is a crucible for courageous dialogue and bold thinking. It brings together the architects of tomorrow’s commerce to tackle today’s most urgent challenges and to illuminate the boundless opportunities that lie ahead in how, where, and why we shop."
