Ian Jindal writes .. InternetRetailing Expo (IRX) is
a fortnight away. I wanted to highlight three
reasons to be with us on the first day, 25 March.
Remember, registering is free (visit
www.internetretailingexpo.com/registration)
and during the process you'll be able to select meetings, workshops, grab
your free train tickets and register your colleagues.
Three activities on 25 March are:
- Drone Delivery Demonstration, including the chance to win the first
drone-delivered Apple Watch...
- IRX Express - the free networking, breakfast-serving, day-planning,
convenient executive train for Top500 delegates
- the reveal of the European Top500 footprint - IREU - at 4.15pm in Theatre
1.
DRONE-DELIVERED APPLE WATCH
Drones - so hyped, so nearly 'now', so many considerations... We'll all
have pondered them in theory, but few of us (whether pro or anti) have had
a chance to play with one. Fear not - don the mirrored Aviator sunnies and
meet our qualified pilot who'll put a drone through its paces in this
CAA-sanctioned demonstration.
Best of all the drone will be carrying an Apple Watch, and one lucky
visitor will be its new owner (thanks to the kindness of our sponsor,
Scurri).
How to win? Just register at
www.internetretailingexpo.com/registration
and keep your fingers crossed
How to watch? You'll get details of the flight times by email, but they'll
be on the morning of 25 March

IRX EXPRESS - let the train take the strain.
We have hired a train carriage on Virgin Trains to transport delegates from
the Top 500 retailers in the UK, allowing them to network with other
retailers during the 70 minute journey. We will also be transporting people
back to London after the cocktail party on the first day and again just
before show close on the second day.
Guests will not be required to pay for travel on the IRX Express but
tickets restricted to employees of the Top 500 Retailers – subject to
availability.
Plan your day, debrief and share afterwards. Simple

THE IREU LAUNCH
Following the enthusiastic reception of the IRUK Top500 (
www.internetretailing.net/iruk)
we will unveil at the show the workings for the IREU 'footprint' -
selecting the 800 or so 'heftiest' multichannel retailers in Europe, from
whom the Top500 will be selected and ranked.
At this intimate and conversational session - 4.15pm in Theatre 1 - we'll
explain our approach and then lead a discussion on how to assess the
capability and performance of retailers across the 34 countries we've
included.

for more information. Free to attend.
I look forward to seeing you and your colleagues at IRX. As ever if you've
any questions, suggestions or requests to make this a better use of your
time please just let me know. Our whole team will be at IRX and the sole
shared objective is to make it a valuable use of your time.
