Retail Advisor, Journalist and Television Presenter, Mary Portas, was the keynote speaker, joining a panel of experts, an RBS economist, and senior staff from some of the UK's most prestigious companies to discuss the changing consumer landscape.

The contributions of those taking part made for a thought-provoking afternoon. We're sure that you'll find plenty of analysis and opinion that is directly relevant to the future of your business.
