The opportunity to drive sales and build brand loyalty through mobile for European retailers is huge, shown by the rapid year on year growth in adoption - 2 hours of a mobile user's day are now spent in apps.

However, it is generally the online-first players and new mobile-first companies who have been fastest to capitalise on this. What can retailers learn from the early winners in mobile retail and how can this be applied successfully in an environment of increasing choice, accessibility and innovation across all retail channels?

In this interactive roundtable App Annie will lead a discussion around the key opportunities and disruption presented by the mobile channel and facilitate the sharing of best practices around a successful retail app strategy. In joining this session you can expect to take away valuable insight into the mobile app economy, and a clear future plan that is immediately actionable as soon as you're back in the office.
