Ask the Speaker

Ask the Speaker - Q&A

A dynamic, interactive format where attendees can engage directly with NRF speakers. They are leading retail executives, experts in their field and technology innovators. These 20-minute sessions are an open mic for All-Access Pass retailers to ask their most pressing questions—whether about strategy, technology adoption, consumer behavior, talent, or future trends. The topics discussed are decided by the audience-driven questions. This is closed to press and off the record.

The session is designed to:

• Foster candid dialogue with industry leaders.

• Surface real challenges retailers are facing in their businesses.

• Provide practical insights that go beyond the prepared remarks of a keynote.

• Encourage peer-to-peer learning as questions from the audience often spark ideas relevant to all.

It’s less presentation, more conversation—an opportunity for retailers to get personalized perspectives from experts shaping the industry today.
