Our extended retail team and I spent five days in Dusseldorf, Germany at EuroShop 2017<\/a>, the world\u2019s largest trade fair for everything in and around retail. With 18 halls, 127,000 m\u00b2 of exhibition space, 2,368 exhibitors, and 113,000 international visitors from 138 countries, it\u2019s hard to describe its magnitude. It\u2019s truly something you have to experience for yourself, at least once!<\/p>\n

For me, EuroShop is always an inspirational experience, and this year more so than ever. Today, technology has evolved to a point where the time is right for retailers to embrace digital transformation \u2013 re-imagining their customer experiences and business processes from the ground up to stay relevant and competitive.<\/p>\n

Walking the halls at this year\u2019s event \u2013 from Visual Merchandizing to Lighting to Retail Technology \u2013 you could literally feel the power of this transformation in action. As the pulse of where the industry is heading, there were a few trends that stood out for me.<\/p>\n
