In the opening episode of season 8, I’m joined by a guest who has spent over 20 years in the exhibition and events industry. Matt Bradley is the Event Director of The Retail Technology Show.  He is a well known face within the retail tech industry and has an enviable book of contacts and understands how to truly connect suppliers with buyers! His philosophy is simple, make experiences not exhibitions and he continues to find ways to revolutionize the conventional expo model.

 The Retail Tea Break podcast is a media partner for The Retail Technology Show, which takes place on 2nd-3rd April 2025 at ExCeL London. With over 15,000+ senior retail professionals, 400+ innovative tech suppliers, 125+ industry-leading speakers and  2 days of unparalleled networking it’s going to be epic!

We discuss:

• The new venue- ExCeL London
• The unbelievable speakers, including Archie Norman the Chairman of Marks and Spencer plc and Theo Paphitis the Owner & Chairman of Theo Paphitis Retail Group
• The supportive nature of the event that allows retailers and their partners to connect
• “Did we mention it’s free”
