TheIndustry.fashion Summit is UK fashion retail’s annual agenda setting summit and is now in its second year. Following last year’s sell-out success, we will be back on 15 October 2026 when we will take over one of London’s most exciting new event venues, The Forum, Leadenhall.
Some 200 of the industry’s finest minds will gather on this day to debate, discuss and decide the future direction of the industry.
Our theme this year is Fashion [Un]Bound.
The fashion industry is entering an era of endless possibility. New generation technologies – from AI to VR – and circular business models are opening up new avenues of opportunity.
UK fashion brands and retailers – who trailblazed e-commerce in the 2000s and re-commerce in the 2010s – once again have the chance to take a leadership position.
The way consumers are shopping and engaging with brands is undergoing a revolution; personalised experiences, live shopping, social shopping, blended new and pre-loved purchasing, private clubs and special events are all now integral parts of the retail mix.
Add to that sky-high expectations when it comes to deliveries, communication and service, and it’s clear retail is once again in the midst of a seismic shift as the 2020s hit the mid-point.
This one-day summit will examine how retailers can best exploit new technologies to drive both growth and efficiencies, and how they can respond to today’s consumers changing behaviour and exacting expectations.
Leading industry speakers will participate in a range of interviews, presentations and panel discussions in the inspiring setting of one of London’s most desirable venues.
Guests will not only benefit from the insights presented on stage, but also have the opportunity to make meaningful connections with business leaders from brands and retailers. This event is also the place to connect with new suppliers that can offer advice and solutions to support you in making better decisions to drive your business forward.
