CSP has announced the launch of Retail Media Network Forum, an event focused on exploring the potential of retail media networks (RMNs) in the convenience-store sector. The forum will be held at the Renaissance Schaumburg, in Schaumburg, Illinois, Oct. 27-28, just ahead of CSP’s C-StoreTEC.
“This forum highlights our industry’s dedication to innovation and education,” says Amanda Buehner, senior vice president of events and media at CSP. “We are also pleased to collaborate with Art Sebastian, CEO of NexChapter and the chairman of our C-StoreTEC Advisory Board.” Art Sebastian adds, “Convenience stores offer unique opportunities due to their store density, visit frequency, and the nature of impulse purchases. By bringing together retailers, CPG [consumer packaged goods] brands and technology companies, we aim to help our industry tap into the retail media network space.”
The Retail Media Network Forum will offer actionable insights from industry experts on the latest trends and best practices in c-store retail media networks; opportunities to connect with key players in the convenience retail and retail media network ecosystems to foster partnerships and collaborations; and in-depth workshops led by specialists to provide practical skills needed to thrive in this evolving landscape.
In addition to a keynote presentation, the event will feature a panel discussion during which retail executives from Yesway, CEFCO and Giant Eagle will share insights about their companies’ journeys in the retail media space.
