Six technology companies—StackAdapt, Treasure Data, Broadsign, Qsic, Shep Digital and Bridg—have joined the steering committee for CSP’s Retail Media Network Forum.
These companies bring expertise in digital advertising, customer data, programmatic media and in-store engagement.
The event, which aims to shape the future of retail media in the convenience sector, will take place April 28-30 in Dallas.
Retail media is one of the fastest-growing segments in advertising, projected to reach $100 billion globally by 2026, according to industry reports. As more retailers recognize the value of leveraging their first-party data and digital assets, the need for best-in-class technology solutions rises.
The Retail Media Steering Committee, first introduced in conjunction with the launch of the Retail Media Network Forum, guides industry conversations, identifies key trends and fosters collaboration between retailers, brands and technology partners.
By bringing together top retail media and technology innovators, the steering committee aims to accelerate the adoption of retail media strategies that drive incremental revenue, enhance customer engagement and create seamless omnichannel advertising opportunities. Education and community building are at the core of this initiative, providing retailers with the knowledge and tools needed to build successful media networks that rival traditional digital advertising platforms. Retailers from Circle K, EG America, Kwik Trip, Maverik and more are also part of the committee.
“We are thrilled to welcome StackAdapt, Treasure Data, Broadsign, Qsic, Shep Digital and Bridg to the Retail Media Steering Committee,” said Art Sebastian, founder and CEO of NexChapter and chair of the Retail Media Network Steering Committee. “Retail media is transforming how convenience retailers connect with consumers and monetize their digital and physical assets. These companies bring the expertise and solutions that will help retailers unlock new revenue streams and elevate their media offerings while fostering industry-wide education and collaboration.”
As leading technology companies, they will provide global thought leadership, share insights and collaborate with retailers and brands to shape best practices in retail media. Their contributions will be highlighted in key discussions at the upcoming Retail Media Network Forum, where industry leaders will explore topics such as first-party data strategies, programmatic advertising, in-store digital engagement, and omnichannel retail media monetization.
“Technology plays a critical role in helping retailers build scalable and effective retail media networks,” said Jeanie Hornung, vice president of technology partnerships at CSP. “By bringing together leaders in digital advertising, data and programmatic solutions, the Retail Media Steering Committee is fostering an ecosystem where retailers and brands can learn, collaborate, and innovate together.”
Sponsorship opportunities for the Retail Media Network Forum, which will take place at the Marriott Uptown in Dallas, are available, and registration is open now.
