Retail The New Wave: Digital To Physical

The future of retail is all about the intersection of the physical and digital worlds. On July 13th ALU and LEAP partnered together for the RDI hosted event at LEAP’s headquarters in New York City to explore this new wave of retail.

Designed to be recycled and shipped directly from ALU’s temporary showroom in Milan to New York, ALU’s modular fixtures have been adapted and repurposed in different areas of the space, where they will be showcased and open to public for the next three + months. Write an email to siena.sinopoli@alu.com to book a visit.

The event featured a panel discussion with experts from across the industry, including ALU’s CEO Abramo Manfrotto. It was a valuable opportunity for retailers to learn about the latest trends in retail and to see how technology can be used to create a more seamless and personalized shopping experience.
