Retail isn’t dying; it’s evolving. The COVID-19 pandemic has sent retailers across the globe into a tailspin, spurring evolution faster than ever. Retail has always been in a constant state of change, but in 2021 it finds itself at an inflection point. Contributing $5 trillion to the U.S. economy, retail is an integral part of our society.

We need to understand how the lessons learned thus far can be incorporated into retailers’ business models. How can we meet consumer demands innovatively and write a new chapter? What changes are essential in this new age, and how can we continue to grow responsibly?
