Building the Foundation for Agentic Commerce

GET READY TO ACCELERATE

BUILD A RETAIL DATA + AI STRATEGY FOR AN AGENTIC FUTURE

The retail industry is undergoing a fundamental shift from “click-and-buy” online transactions to agentic commerce. The rise of AI agents is redefining the customer journey, moving beyond simple chatbots to systems that can independently discover, negotiate, and execute purchases. For retail and consumer goods leaders, this evolution presents a critical inflection point – to remain competitive, businesses must move from AI experiments to a production-ready data & AI foundation that is ready for autonomous agents.
Join Accelerate Retail & Consumer Goods virtual event for business and technology leaders who are ready to move past the hype and build the infrastructure for the future of commerce. You will hear from Snowflake industry experts and pioneering retail executives who are already operationalizing AI technology with measurable business results.
Gain a strategic blueprint for the “Agentic Era.” As AI agents begin to influence the customer lifecycle, the winning brands need to own and govern their data and tools. This event will guide you in transforming your data and technology into a strategic asset – your competitive advantage in the agentic future.
