DUBAI - THE IDEAL SETTING FOR THE RETAIL SUMMIT As the jewel in the GCC’s crown, Dubai serves as a hub for the 2.2bn people who live less than a 4 hour flight away from the Emirate. The region has cultivated a vibrant melting pot of attractions. From the world’s tallest building, its largest choreographed fountain, desert safaris, drone taxis, and the striking bridges and snaking waterways of the canal, Dubai has it all. Dubai’s retail sector takes its inspiration from this unparalleled variety of experiences. Which in turn provides the backdrop for 2 days of invigorating, thought-provoking discussion and world-class content at The Retail Summit. www.theretailsummit.com
