Explore the Trends Reshaping the Retail and Hospitality Industries

With restaurant reservations becoming harder to get, hotel bookings selling out with a resurgence of tourism, and the most sought after brands benefiting from both brick and mortar locations as well as e-commerce, retail and hospitality seem to have found their stride after several years of turbulence. What is driving this retail resurgence? Placemaking, exclusivity and location seem to be among the top indicators of brand success for these consumer-driven industries.

Don’t miss your opportunity to hear from major retailers, restaurateurs, hospitality chains and the real estate industry’s preeminent leaders as they share key strategies for stabilizing the industries that have been tackling constant twists and turns in an ever-changing market.
