THE CLUB OF 369
Join us and become part of the year-round community that keeps you close to the people, perspectives and opportunities shaping retail and consumer goods. Together, we make more of Retail Summit and turn what begins there into professional value throughout the year.
Retail Summit 2026 — the Club of 369 in action
Club members who choose to attend Retail Summit participate through the Club and do not need to purchase a separate delegate ticket.
MEMBERSHIP
We sharpen our judgment by learning from people who experience retail and consumer goods from different companies, functions and Circles. We test our own thinking against other realities, recognise important developments earlier and return to our work with broader perspective and stronger relationships.
SELECTIVE PROFESSIONAL OPPORTUNITY
" Belonging to the Club also brings us closer to opportunities that are not open in the same way from the outside. When Retail Summit looks for people to join its Advisory Committee or take on programme roles, our members are the first community it turns to. "
THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Throughout the year, we come together through Circle sessions, working meetings and dinners. The Retail Summit 2027 Advisory Committee brings together hundreds of Club members from across retail and consumer goods who are developing the next Summit together.

Retail Summit is where the Club of 369 comes alive — and where the wider industry comes together. But the work continues throughout the year. After April, the strongest signals are extracted and structured. In June, we test the arenas. In October, we deepen them. In January, we align them. In April, we activate them live again at Retail Summit.

TWO PERSPECTIVES. ONE COMPASS.
No one sees the full picture alone. Club of 369 brings the experience of making decisions inside retail and consumer-goods companies. The Solution Providers Hub brings the experience of turning those decisions into solutions, implementation and adoption. The 369DI Compass connects these perspectives without merging them, helping reveal where direction is clear, where friction appears and what one decision may set in motion elsewhere.
