Multiple Value Creation of Retail

Language: Dutch/English | Location: Enschede

In the Learning Community ‘Multiple Value Creation of Retail’ challenging issues related to the future of retail and retailers take center stage. We focus on developing sustainable and innovative solutions for the retail sector, considering economic, social, and ecological values. Retail plays a central role in creating value for consumers and can simultaneously act as a key link in broader societal trends, such as promoting sustainable consumption.

Additionally, we explore the role of retail in relation to other sectors, such as the leisure economy. How can retailers adapt to the changing needs and preferences of consumers, for example, in their leisure activities? We consider ways to enhance the shopping experience through smart technologies, appealing physical environments, and innovative concepts that are relevant to both retail and leisure activities.

We also address issues surrounding the use of data and technology in retail, as well as retail’s influence on sustainable consumer behavior, such as facilitating reuse and repair where applicable.

In short, if you are passionate about the future of retail and aspire to make a meaningful contribution to shaping sustainable and future-proof retail environments, our Learning Community offers a unique opportunity for personal growth and development!
