We invest millions driving traffic. But how much do we invest in winning the moment after the click? As acquisition costs rise and competition intensifies, the next competitive advantage in D2C ecommerce is not more traffic— it is experience. At Electrolux, we turned personalisation into adaptive/intent-based commerce, a commercial engine that drives growth now, and prepares us for the future.

The New Front Door: Why DTC is Breaking Again

Mainstage

(And What Smart Brands Do Next)

aws white png
Dwayne Browne Head of AI and Data Transformation Strategy, EMEA AWS

In this session, Dwayne Browne unpacks what the new "front door" of your website means in practice, as AI assistants become the primary way consumers research, choose, and buy products. Drawing parallels from previous waves of disintermediation and real examples of brands already navigating this shift today, Dwayne makes the case that companies that build deep, long-term digital relationships with customers actually hold a powerful card–but only if they learn to play it.

The framework is simple: be open, be connected, be intelligent. But why does this matter and what does good look like right now? This isn't doom and gloom, its a call to action for brands that want to stay in the conversation.

In this fun, personal keynote, he charts data's remarkable journey and shows you exactly how to prepare for an agentic future that's already arriving faster than most people realize.

Leading with clarity in a world overwhelmed by answers

Elevation Stage

Wise (1) Braze_Primary_logo_WHITE (1)
Hazal Muhtar Senior Director of Data Wise

In a world full of answers, the real advantage isn't having more data—it’s having the clarity to know what to do with it.

This talk challenges the assumption that better tools naturally lead to better choices, arguing that data merely amplifies the thinking behind it. By aligning on the problems worth solving and surfacing hidden assumptions, teams can stop reacting to what is measurable and start leading with intent. When information is no longer the bottleneck, direction becomes your most important constraint.

The Control Group: How easyJet Rewrote the Rules of Experimentation

Elevation Stage

Banner Narrow Creative CX easyjet-1
Joseph Vinson Product Manager easyJet Holidays
Chris Gibbons Chief Experimentation Officer Creative CX

Most experimentation teams are drowning in data but starving for direction. easyJet Holidays asked a simple question, "what if we started with the problem, not the solution?" and it changed everything.

In this session, we'll take you inside the thinking behind their problem-first approach to discovery and ideation. They'll show you how cross-functional teams at easyJet Holidays get aligned on what actually matters, how triangulated problem statements cut through the noise, and why this shift has led to more winning tests and fewer inconclusive ones.

Expect a live experiment with the audience, real programme metrics, and practical recommendations you can take straight back to your team.

3:35 PM - Solving the Ownership Issue: Making Accessibility Everyone's Mission

  • Marion Ranvier, Executive Director, Contentsquare Foundation

  • Ali Saker, Ecommerce, Customer Journey & Strategy Manager

Accessibility is everyone's problem—which means it's no one's priority. With the European Accessibility Act now in force, accessibility isn't optional. But compliance alone won't cut it. 

In this session, Marion Ranvier breaks down why most accessibility projects fail, then sits down with B&Q to figure out how they turned accessibility into a competitive advantage. Through rapid-fire Q&A, learn how they got every department on board and made accessibility a company-wide commitment that drives real business value. The takeaway? Real strategies you can steal.
