“Creating a destination – when the store becomes a story” In the eco system of retail, the physical market place is predicted to become more and more about experiences, tailored to each customer’s specific need and preference. But what does this really entail? And what will it require from retailers and real estate owners? At this year’s NCSC Annual Conference we will discuss everything from staffing and store design to technology and marketing, and how each will affect the days ahead.

    Lunch at Norra Latin

    Introduction by moderator Magnus Ohlsson

    Creating a destination is all about relevance and having an offer that stands out from the crowd. E-commerce has made it possible to shop whatever you want and wherever you are – from an abundance of offerings and discounted goods. In the midst of digital transformation, how do you create a physical touchpoint that still delivers value to the customers and thereby floor traffic?

    From Retail to Innovative and Tech-Enabled Repurposing

    “Put simply, there is too much retail real estate space and the asset class has been under pressure from both e-commerce and changing consumer trends. Yet, at the same time a wave of innovation has taken hold in the real estate sector, backed by large amounts of venture capital dollars, that are allowing landlords to repurpose their assets in a tech-enabled way and partner with visionary companies that are changing the way we live, work, and play.”

    Hear about this trend and the latest innovations from Fifth Wall, the largest venture capital firm in the world focused on the Built World.

    Roelof has led Fifth Wall’s investments in Lyric, Eden, Appear Here, Hippo, Industrious, Loggi, Recharge, Lime, and Aurora Solar. Previously, Roelof worked at Norwest Venture Partners, Evercore Partners, Goldman Sachs, and Bridgewater Associates. He is originally from Johannesburg, and graduated Phi Beta Kappa, magna cum laude, from Emory University. He is also a Chartered Financial Analyst.
