In their words, read what retail leaders are saying
"A highly relevant European edition: a great opportunity to connect with our European peers, expand our network, and save valuable time thanks to its location in Paris."
Denis BOSCHARD COO EURONICS
"A must-attend event to connect with the entire e-commerce and connected retail ecosystem in one place, featuring a concentration of innovations and practical solutions, all enhanced by a premium experience and high-quality conferences."
Romain AUBRY Marketing, Communications & Digital Director Seguret Décoration
"A rich experience: bringing together current and future partners, conferences focused on today’s trends and emerging or future technologies, and a wealth of experiences to turn ideas into projects and accelerate ambitions."
Sébastien Bernard Omnichannel Project Development Manager CARREFOUR
"A must-attend event: a powerful hub for engaging with our banking partners and service providers, discovering new players, and confidently driving our initiatives forward with real impact."
Stéphane Jacquart Operations Treasurer Auchan Retail France
"NRF Europe brings together in 3 days the strategic vision of European retail, high-value insights, and executive-level conversations rarely found elsewhere."
Lisa Nakam DG associée Jonak
"Attending NRF Europe was an extraordinary experience: an international stage where ideas, innovation, and vision come together. It is an experience I would recommend to anyone who wants to grow and contribute to the future of retail."
Marcello PACE Chief Executive Officer PittaRosso / Scarpe & Scarpe
"Paris was the right place to be. The conversations went beyond the obvious: AI, personalization, data, and addressed the more complex questions around what it really takes to build something that feels relevant to the customer. Bringing a Scandinavian perspective to this stage felt timely. We are doing things in Nordic retail that deserve more airtime in the broader European conversation."
Maria MOREAU CRM Director Boozt
"The NRF Europe 2025 Retail Store Tours gave me an immersive behind-the-scenes look at Hermès, Le Bon Marché, and La Grande Épicerie."
