Florian Rotberg, managing director of invidis consulting and DSS Europe 2018 Chair, said: The conference programme will explore how digital storytelling and digital touchpoints are adding real value and Changing the Narrative' by utilising digital signage via improving customer engagement and bridging the online and offline worlds. Many retailers are looking at ways in which their traditional stores can become experiential destinations to help drive further in-store purchases.

Digital technology, such as digital signage, electronic shelf labels and new screen technologies such as LED and OLED, needs to inspire visitors to the store, and can't be used as just a Wow factor'. Finding a balance between customer demands and expenditure, retailers must also place themselves in the shoes of their customers to discover what adds value to this experience?

We will show how new technologies and business strategies are being absorbed by many market sectors where story telling' and clear communications are key parts of their offerings. Attendees to DSS Europe 2018 will get a much clearer vision of the future and how they can shape their own destiny.

We have an extremely strong conference programme and a great new venue and location for what promises to be our strongest edition so far.
