NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Intersect Retail, a series dedicated to the insights, best practices and peer-to-peer networking of retailers and brands across a variety of verticals, announces its international debut with the introduction of Intersect Fashion in London on May 5, 2016.

Now in its fifth year, Intersect Retail gathers best-in-class executives for intimate discussions on the hot button topics affecting digital marketing and e-commerce. Intersect Fashion tackles the execution of digital efforts both online and offline in the apparel & accessories space.

Limited to 300 executives, this year attendees will hear from leaders of companies such as Fashion Tech Ventures, Goldman Sachs, Google, Lyst, mytheresa.com, Reiss, UK Trade and Investments, Tailor Made London, and 151Luwolt. Executives from Kering and MatchesFashion will keynote.

Intersect Fashion host committee members include Cassandra Bergsland, Head of Website Merchandising for Yoox Net-A-Porter, Michelle Helmer, co-founder of Helmer, Stephanie Horton, CMO of Farfetch, and Erika Van Roode, Europe Fashion Director of IMG Fashion.

Taking the conversation global, this one-day VIP pass with thought leaders and top decision makers will give special attention to international fashion brands and retailers, highlighting successful solutions and innovative methods for winning more customer business with digital tools, emphasizing those that tie into the offline retail experience. Topics include:

Global e-Commerce and Cross Border Sales
Luxury Brands and the High-End e-Commerce Experience
Mobile Experience Driving Conversions
Making the Most of Your Customer Data
Mobile Advertising and Marketing
Sustainable Sourcing Innovation
Omnichannel—Connecting Your Clicks to Bricks

For Forbes.com, Neilson CEO Mitch Burns writes, "A recent report suggests the global business-to-consumer cross-border e-commerce market will reach $1 trillion in 2020.

Companies should jump on this. Many bricks-and-mortar companies lost ground to pure-play e-commerce companies by being slow to develop in-country online strategies. They should not miss the international boat, too, even if it means working hard on in-country and cross-border e-commerce in parallel."

Intersect Fashion London will address this opportunity by breaking down the discussions that matter: promotion, acquisition, conversion, and retention and growth—both online and offline. Attendees will take away tools and solutions, learning from individual areas of expertise.

Intersect Fashion London will take place at Kings Place on Thursday, 5 May, 2016. For more information and to register, visit www.intersectretail.com. For speaking inquiries, contact Crystal Everson at [email protected]. For sponsorship details contact Gina Thomas at [email protected].
