Retail Summit 2025, Recap, Insights & Beyond

A Message from the CEO of European Conferences United
Casper Haring on the Poland and CEE Retail Summit 2025

The Poland and CEE Retail Summit 2025 was never meant to be just another conference.
From the beginning, our goal was clear: to build something with the industry, not just for it. This year proved that vision is alive and growing.
At the heart of it stands the Club of 369, a living community that shaped not just the event, but the future we are building together. Through months of collaboration, discussions, surveys, dinners, and meetings, leaders across the industry co-created the Summit agenda.

In October 2024 alone, more than 200 decision-makers gathered in Warsaw across 25 working groups to sharpen ideas and set priorities.
But the real movement stretched beyond the meeting rooms.
It lived in every conversation, every connection, every shared idea that strengthened our community throughout the year.
By the time the Summit opened in April 2025, the stage was already set by the very people who would stand on it.

With over 500 speakers and panelists, 13 content stages, and more than 3,200 participants, the Retail Summit became what we proudly call the Port of Ports, the place where thousands of journeys converged.

Before the event, dozens of Dinners2Connect and executive gatherings across the region brought people together.
During the event, the energy, insights, and shared experiences created something far greater than any single moment.

This is what makes me most proud: not the scale of the event, but the scale of collaboration behind it.

The journey continues.

The Retail Summit 2026 is already in motion, and the energy we built this year is only the beginning.
