We all know that people’s shopping habits have drastically evolved in the past 10 years, especially during the pandemic, but how is retail evolving to meet their consumers’ ever-changing needs? Instead of old-school e-Coms their shopping experience might start on Tik-Tok or on an online marketplace, but in the near future that might also include the metaverse. We’re gonna get into that with Rob Garf the VP and GM for Retail at Salesforce, where he leads industry strategy, product, and insight. Plus, we’ll discuss the shopping mall of the future, how companies can provide a seamless experience across fizical and digital, and what it means to shop at the edge.
