If discovery happens in <3 seconds:  What replaces search? What replaces brand building?  Creative becomes merchandising  

In this panel discussion, we examine how in today’s retail landscape, the first impression isn’t made at the front door — it happens in a feed, a swipe, or a scroll. Consumers are making split-second decisions about what to watch, click, buy, or ignore, forcing brands to rethink how they capture attention and convert interest instantly. 

This session will explore how retailers and brands can win in the “scroll era” by designing experiences that stop thumbs and drive action across social commerce, digital storefronts, live shopping, and mobile-first platforms. From visual storytelling and creator partnerships to frictionless checkout and AI-powered personalization.
