As a partner company, you have the opportunity to regularly involve your employees in our Research Workshops, held several times throughout the year.
These workshops focus on current topics and trends in retail management. Cutting-edge research findings are presented in a practice-oriented format, offering participants the chance to explore relevant issues, engage in meaningful dialogue, and contribute their perspectives. In doing so, you help shape the future direction of retail research alongside our academic team.
Participants of the CAS in International Retail Management are required to attend three of these workshops as part of their certification programme.
