From the organiser · in English · their own words

An evening on AI, agentic commerce and what's next for ecommerce.
According to Shopify, 65% of shoppers say they'll use AI for at least one shopping task this season. Only a third say they'd trust an AI agent to make the purchase for them.
Most customers still want to see the product, read the reviews and make the call themselves. So when a real person lands on your product page, they didn't wander in. They came looking and they mean to buy. What's left to decide is whether your store turns that intent into an order, or loses it to a slow page, a vague description or a clunky checkout.
Every online store runs on software for search, reviews, loyalty, checkout and analytics. The tools that help a real person decide and buy faster are where the value is heading.
With Black Friday and Christmas a few weeks away, we're bringing the people who build, run and sell to online stores into one room. They'll share what they're seeing, what merchants should consider, and what to look out for before the busiest stretch of the year.
A panel of experts from across ecommerce, moderated by Millie Marconi from TestFeed, will work out what's real, from agentic checkouts to self-running stores. They'll look at how shoppers find products when an AI assistant does the searching, and which parts of the ecommerce software stack agents will break, rebuild or make redundant. Panellists announced soon.
Then the floor opens to you. Bring the question about your own store or product.
