At a time when retail spaces are undergoing a significant transformation driven by changing consumer expectations and needs, Meridiana, representing MAPIC in the Iberian Peninsula, will host an event in Lisbon. The event, entitled "Adapting commercial spaces to the new ways of living, socialising and shopping", will take place on July 18 at the IDB Lisbon center and will be sponsored by IDB Lisbon, Jamestown and Placer.
During the Meetup, several key issues will be addressed to understand and adapt to these new market demands. Starting by looking at how consumers' shopping habits have changed, highlighting the growing preference for convenience, the combination of online and physical spaces, and the shopping experience people have. It will also be discussed how technology, including online commerce, can integrate with trading spaces to create effective digital platforms.
The event will explore strategies for designing retail spaces that are engaging, functional, and offer memorable experiences, presenting examples of how technology can personalize the shopping experience and encourage greater interaction with customers. In addition, the importance of sustainability in the design and operation of commercial spaces will be discussed, including the use of eco-friendly materials and the implementation of sustainable management practices, as well as how commercial spaces can support local communities and promote corporate social responsibility initiatives.
