'Retail Friday' will showcase innovative new retail concepts from across the globe, giving retailers the opportunity to present their company to the leading shopping centre industry professionals. Other sessions will focus on maximising the opportunities for retailers and developers to work more profitably together.
ICSC European Conference chair Gerard Groener, CEO of Corio, said: 'To sustain the shopping centre industry and drive it forwards, we must work closer together. Providing the right environment, support and opportunities for retailers, developers and investors to meet and do business at our 2009 conference in Barcelona will signal our determination to enable these closer working relationships.'
The conference will be held at Catalonia Palace of Congresses from 22-24 April 2009.
