JCK Talks Presenting Sponsor: Jewelers Mutual Group

Heading into 2020, the retail industry was poised for another year of extraordinary growth, capital investment and job creation. But in mid-March, we quickly learned 2020 will be the year of change. Join Bill Thorne of the National Retail Federation, which represents big-name retailers and Main Street brands, as he walks through the state of the industry. What was retail’s outlook for 2020? How did the industry adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic? And what does the future look like now?

If there is one thing Chris Walton and Jeff Bezos have in common, it’s the number of times they are asked, “What’s going to change in the next 10 years?” While the question is interesting, the far more important question is “What’s not going to change in the next 10 years?” The latter question, as Walton will humorously and candidly show in his presentation, is what helps one to filter out the noise and get to the real heart of understanding how retail experiences will change, regardless of COVID-19, over the next 3 to 5 years.
