Holly Tucker

Holly Tucker, Founder of Holly & Co and Not On The High Street, will also be a keynote speaker at RTS 2024.

She will discuss best practice strategies for leveraging data from multiple sources across a business and how to use that insight to power informed decision-making and create the greatest business impact. 

Drawing on her experiences from growing Not On The High Street from a startup to a leading UK online platform for independent retail, as well as founding Holly & Co, an organisation that supports small businesses and entrepreneurs,

Tucker will also explore which technologies present the best ROI when it comes to delivering successful and impactful data initiatives. 

Matt Bradley, Event Director at the Retail Technology Show, comments: “Retailers understand that their businesses hold a wealth of data, however the practicalities of unifying that data from disparate sources and systems can make those goldmines of insights hard to unlock, and even harder to extract value from. “

“As a retail leader who’s grappled with that very conundrum, and who now advises other entrepreneurs tackling similar challenges, Holly is perfectly placed to share some of her insider hacks and best-practice advice on making data work harder when growing an online business.”

AI, Data & Innovation will be one of six Conference Programme tracks which will feature at RTS 2024, and will be chaired by Customer Whisperer, Kate Hardcastle, on the Headline Stage on day one. 

Tucker will join other innovation leaders on the Headline Stage, including Dex Hunter-Torricke, who will draw from his experiences working at Google, DeepMind, Meta and SpaceX to deliver a keynote on the impact of Gen AI and how retailers can make sense of this game-changing opportunity. 

His session will outline key AI lessons, real-life applications and benefits, and will unpick its potential to disrupt the industry and how retailers need to evolve their risk and compliance processes to be ready for the Gen AI revolution.
