Agenda Day 1

8:50 AM KEYNOTE PANEL DISCUSSION: THE 2026 RETAIL DATA PLAYBOOK: FROM DATA GOVERNANCE TO SCALING AI - FUNDING, FOCUS, AND WINNING IN A FLAT-GROWTH MARKET

With retail sales flattening, volumes declining and retail confidence still in negative territory, CDOs are being asked to deliver AI-led growth without much top-line tailwind. This panel unpacks how data leaders secure funding, prioritise ruthlessly, and influence the C-suite in a squeezed retail environment.

Understand how flat or volatile retail demand and fragile consumer confidence are reshaping the CDO mandate in retail.

• Discover funding narratives that resonate with CEOs and CFOs when sales growth is weak, but AI and data investment needs grow.

• Explore practical tactics for aligning product, tech, trading and finance around a shared value roadmap.

• Expand on a playbook for sustaining backing across budget cycles and leadership changes.
