Retail media has become one of the fastest growing opportunities for consumer goods, but scaling it requires more than investment in platforms and data; true success depends on internal alignment. In this session, hear from a CPG leader who has guided their company through a retail media transformation. They’ll share hard-earned lessons on how to “sell” retail media internally, what it takes to realign teams and incentives, and how to position budgets where they can deliver maximum impact.
