Their sponsorship covers the costs of the event so that we can continue to offer the event FREE to retailers. The Retail Conference was the first event of its type to be offered FREE and we're delighted to now see other events following in our footsteps to the benefit of you, the delegates! Another unique feature of The Retail Conference is that our sponsors have exclusivity in their primary field of business activity - meaning that delegates get to speak to a range of providers without being swamped with just one message, and meaning that sponsors can be open and honest with delegates - knowing their business information won't end up in the hands of their competition. Which leads us onto yet another unique feature of The Retail Conference - we only allow a limited number of non-retail attendees (outside of the sponsor-delegates). The reason for this is twofold:
