Description

What happens when you mix the science of data with the art of human connection? That’s the theme behind Shoptalk Fall 2025, Retail Alchemy.

In this episode of the RETHINK Retail podcast, HG O’Connell joins host Sharon Gai to share how ShopTalk Fall is creating an intimate, experimental space for retail leaders.

Highlights include:
- Why Shoptalk Fall is designed as a “lab” for testing new formats and ideas
- This year’s theme of Retail Alchemy and how it plays out across sessions and the show floor
- The rise of AI fatigue, and the demand for real case studies with measurable results
- The return of Shopwalks, taking execs on curated tours
