Where to go from here, Hungarian retail?
In the first session of the conference, the experts will seek to answer the question of what trends are currently characterising the international and domestic retail sector and how to successfully overcome the most pressing challenges. These include the macroeconomic situation, including labour shortages, supply chain issues, and the constant changes in government regulation. But changing consumption habits will also be discussed, so we will also focus on marketing and communication strategies to reach consumers in a changing market environment, from the FMCG sector through the fashion and electronics industry to the whole spectrum of retail.
