EXCLUSIVE: Carrefour's Innovation Director Helene Labaume reveals how one of the world's largest retailers (90+ billion revenue) manages breakthrough technology adoption across 40+ countries.

Recorded live from the VusionGroup Podcast Studio on NRF Europe's final day, we discover Carrefour's systematic innovation approach:

✅ Why they invested in "immature" computer vision 5 years ago (now scaling to stores)

✅ Its venture fund's 4 strategic investment streams

✅ Smart glasses "deep dive" with use cases for consumers AND associates

✅ AI product formulation: improving recipes and creating vegan alternatives

✅ CEO support as the secret weapon for innovation communication

✅ Future retail vision: AI + Technology + Human connection

The philosophy: "If you see a connected barbecue launched by Carrefour, it won't be us"—they focus on disruption, not gimmicks.

🎯 Perfect for: Innovation managers, retail executives, VC professionals, and anyone interested in long-term technology adoption strategies.
