Gener8's Sam Jones and investor Tinie Tempah join Retail Technology Show speaker line up

Sam Jones, the founder of Gener8, the digital data firm which rose to fame on Dragon’s Den, and Gener8 investor and platinum selling British rap artist, Tinie Tempah, have been confirmed as headline speakers at Retail Technology Show.

The event takes place next week at London’s Olympia (on 26th-27th April).

The Sam Jones and Tinie Tempah session will unpick the journey of the aforementioned startup and its roadmap to a projected £1 billion business by 2030.

It will also explore changes to the digital landscape that will present new commercial opportunities to retailers and brands, the rise of NFTs and the impact of data privacy changes, both to consumers and to those looking to engage shoppers.  

The session will replace that of Dragon’s Den investor and Social Chain CEO, Steven Bartlett, who has pulled out of Retail Technology Show for personal reasons.

Matt Bradley, Event Director for the Retail Technology Show, comments: “We know the retailers and brands who visit Retail Technology Show never stop searching for new inspiration and the latest curve-pushing innovations – and neither do we.”

“So, I am delighted that with just under a week to go until Retail Technology Show reunites retail at London Olympia, we’ve brought two more exceptional speakers to the Headline stage, as part of our commitment to bringing the brightest and most innovative minds in the industry to the stage.”
