YORK ecommerce solutions agency PureNet has joined with retail technology provider Retail IT for an afternoon of presentations, discussions and insights exploring how small and expanding retailers can utilise technology to compete with their larger, more illustrious competitors.

To be held in the China Exchange in London on October 19, the event will cover a wide range of topics, including ecommerce, social media and the future of retail technology and promises to be an insightful afternoon, not to be missed.

Keynote speaker Sir Clive Woodward, World Cup-winning former England rugby union coach, will discuss how incremental changes to your business approach can yield significant results - featuring examples, insights and case studies from his sporting and business career and how they can be applied to a retail business.

Attendees will also hear from PureNet’s development team lead, Douglas Radburn, who will dissect how ecommerce can bridge the gap between online and offline and discuss key omnichannel ecommerce features in detail.

The event also offers presentations covering how digital and social media can help independent retailers boost footfall, grow brands and help sales flourish, and panel discussions.
