Industry heavyweight Peter Cowgill named as keynote speaker at Retail Technology Show 2023
Former Executive Chairman of JD Sports Fashion and current Chairman of The Fragrance Shop, Peter Cowgill, has been confirmed as a keynote speaker at Retail Technology Show 2023, set to take place on 26th and 27th April at London’s Olympia.
In a LinkedIn post, Retail Technology Show said: “Peter is the retail genius who took JD Sports from a UK only retailer to now operating in 27 worldwide territories.”
“With a number of acquisitions under his belt, including the acquisition of Finish Line in the United States, a deal worth $558 million, he has demonstrated how truly tough and tactical he is in the business playground.”
It added: “Don't miss the opportunity to hear from a retail ‘hall of famer’ and learn from the very best in the industry.”
Following the announcements of Steven Bartlett and Mary Portas as headline speakers, Cowgill will join over 100+ retail thought leaders taking to the stage at RTS 2023.
Matt Bradley, Event Director at Retail Technology Show, comments: “Innovation isn’t just driven by technology – it’s a mindset. And that makes imagination and the exchange of ideas crucial in keeping retail businesses relevant, successful and profitable in the long-term.”
“Our conference programme seeks to provides the platform for those critical discussions that can drive the industry forwards through innovation.”
“We’re excited to have so many retail thought leaders and visionaries already confirmed to join us on stage at the show, and look forward to adding more standout speakers to the agenda as we look ahead to our doors opening in April.”
