Why Attend?
Richmond forums provide opportunities to connect and engage with your industry community.

The Richmond Retail & eCommerce Directors’ Forum, now in it’s 12th year will play host to 180 senior retailers and 75 retail service providers.

The aim of our event is to put you in touch with your peer group, create lasting business relationships whilst providing high profile industry speakers within our CPD accredited conference programme.

The Richmond Retail & eCommerce Directors’ Forum allows you to make new connections with people face to face, in person, real time. We believe in the power of being present. In a technological era, face to face interaction is still the most effective way of forming collaborative business connections.

Conference Programmes
Our conference programmes aim to give attendees the intellectual stimulus and opportunity to plan the next steps for their organisation, departments and careers.

The agendas are pitched at a high level and we endeavour to present new case studies and fresh thinking at each of our events. By using a variety of session formats, we allow attendees to address the critical issues they currently face and identify quick fixes to immediate problems and consider longer term strategies.

Who Attend?

Each of our attendees has a bespoke itinerary of business meetings, mealtime meetings, conference sessions and free time. Our unique appointment system allows participants to make the very best of their time by allowing delegates and suppliers to pre-select who they would like to meet. Our appointment system matches delegate and supplier selections in priority order to produce a personalised itinerary tailored to their individual requirements.

• Delegates - A Richmond delegate is a senior decision maker or influencer usually in charge of buying decisions who is normally invited to our events free of charge.
• Suppliers - Companies offering a range of products and services to address the needs of delegates' future projects. New business generation is the cornerstone of the supplier element at all Richmond Forums.
• Speakers - Experts in their fields who address key issues, stimulate discussion and debate and provide insight into practical solutions.
