No other single speech in the retail calendar has the power to set the agenda – and motivate its audience – quite like the Annual Retail Lecture.  Now in its eighth year, the BRC’s Retail Lecture is held for the industry to challenge thinking, inspire fresh ideas and present new possibilities. The evening will provide a measure against which retailers can test their strategic assumptions and planning for the coming months. The event has been organised for senior retail executives from across the core business functions.

Not only will the event present a unique occasion to hear from one of retail’s leading CEOs, sparking off an interesting opportunity to debate the most challenging issues of the day, but it also provides excellent networking opportunities, offering delegates the perfect occasion to share views with industry peers.

This year’s keynote will be delivered by Lord Simon Wolfson, CEO, Next.
