About this session

Online retail sales have been outperforming bricks-and-mortar sales, fuelled largely by major shifts in work and commuting patterns. What does the future of retail – and retail space – look like, and what are the implications for communities, consumers and business? This session was developed in partnership with The Innovator. This is a livestreamed session.
