Global Partner Summit 2025

Disruption is the new normal

The growing adoption of generative and agentic AI is rapidly reshaping how retailers and brands operate and engage with customers — creating new expectations for speed, relevance, and personalisation. At the frontline of this change, retailers face unique challenges—and opportunities—every day.

This year’s Global Partner Summit is designed to help you respond.

Over 2.5 days, in the beautiful venue of Carton House, Dublin, we’ll bring together an exclusive group of senior retail leaders from around the world to share experiences, build meaningful connections, and explore how we can collectively move from reacting to leading. Together, we’ll tackle key questions:

1. As categories grow to serve tailored tastes, how can we make smarter, faster range decisions across channels?
2. How can retailers ensure that, on top of insightful understanding of their customers, you build a brand and operational framework to nudge or influence your customers’ behaviour?
3. What does AI-powered collaboration look like between retailers and brands?

New this year: Objective-driven curated networking

We know the value of the people in the room. That’s why we’re introducing structured, small-group learning sessions—tailored to your role, priorities, and challenges. These facilitated conversations will help you connect with the right peers, share challenges, discuss ideas, and build a support network that lasts long after the event ends.

The pace of innovation in retail has never been faster. AI is opening up new opportunities, not just in driving efficiencies but shaping the way we connect with customers and delivering a more personalised experience. Retail Media continues to grow around the world as an essential channel and dunnhumby is well placed to work with retailers and brands using data science to make smarter decisions for customers.

We’ll explore these topics and more across 2.5 days of engaging content and networking opportunities as well as exploring some of Ireland’s fantastic local stores for what promises to be an exceptional learning experience. In a market where Retail Media is rapidly growing, Tesco and dunnhumby are leading the way and we look forward to sharing insights with you.

We are working to build an exciting agenda packed full of fantastic speakers from dunnhumby, our clients, our partners and industry experts which we will share soon. If there is anything specific you’d like to hear about, please make a note in the registration form or speak to your client lead.
