AM | Dave Coplin Chief Envisioning Offi cer at Microsoft

Since joining Microsoft in 2005, Dave Coplin has worked across a wide range of industries and customers, providing strategic advice and guidance around the impact of technology on a modern society both at work and in play.

An established thought leader on the role of technology in our personal and professional lives. He has worked across a wide range of industries and customers, providing strategic advice and guidance around the intersection of a modern society and technology both inside and outside of the world of work. Dave is passionate about turning the base metal of technology into valuable assets that affect the way we live work and play and in so doing, move the focus from the technology itself to the outcome it enables.

Dave can be found on Twitter@dcoplin and at his online homewww.theenvisioners.com

PM | BJ Cunningham Whilst still a teenager BJ Cunningham started his fi rst enterprise, importing classic cars and Harley Davidsons from LA to London. When the market collapsed he used his considerable debt to launch DEATH Cigarettes - positioned as ‘The Honest Smoke’. It gained such a foothold that BJ found himself taking on the combined might of the industry in the European Court of Justice.

BJ’s message is that a brand is a promise, not a logo; it’s about depth, not awareness. A business must know what it stands for, say it with clarity and do what it says. With wonderfully engaging examples, he shows that customers want to understand the authentic soul of the organisation and become part of your community.

As the world leader in store technology, Toshiba understands that mobility represents the most

significant challenge – and the greatest opportunity – facing the modern retailer. How can you give your

customers a seamless experience, whether they’re browsing on the bus or paying in the store? Can your store associates

better engage via mobile tablets like our new TCxFlight™ – and, if so, is it time to rethink the design of the store itself? Find

out how mobile technology can both enhance the customer experience and boost the bottom line in our new white paper,

“Taking Stock: How to Secure Merchandise in a Mobile World.” Download it today at togethercommerce.com/mobility

Toshiba will share insights gained from joint research with IBM where over 30,000 customers worldwide discussed the role of technology in their shopping experiences and in choosing a retailer.

We’ll share some of the most compelling features in our new ecommerce platform:• Connecting online, mobile, social and in-store

experiences through a fully integrated global platform for Microsoft Dynamics.

• The flexibility to evolve with your changing and growing business needs and emerging technologies.

• Presenting your products consistently across all channels to acquire and retain more customers

A customer ordered and paid for a £7,000 home cinema system from an iForce client at 11.20pm on a Monday night from a mobile device. This kind of speed, flexibility and responsiveness is also required of the logistics and delivery solution to meet these demands and expectations.We will assess the challenges and solutions involved in helping the likes of John Lewis, Cath Kidston and Dunelm Mill to create a winning omni-channel offer.

Hear how retailers can:• Help your customers shop the way they want. Offer

products and services in the store, online, on the phone–or in combination–during a single purchase.

• Offer your customers a great shopping experience. Help customers make a purchase decision at home, in the store, or on the go, using purchase history, preferences, and other customer insight.

• Keep your customers coming back. Nurture customer relationships with global loyalty programmes and social media campaigns.

As future checkout services unfold, the real challenge for retailers will be overcoming integration complexity to harness, use and manage these new technologies successfully including payment devices, managed services, retail apps, and MPOS as well as enabling contactless/NFC, new mobile wallets and value added services. VeriFone shows how it can make this happen without losing sight of the basics – security, performance and reliability – to ensure a connected customer experience.

Why being connected to a digital network is essential to gaining valuable consumer insights and increasing loyalty.

Online retailers have a distinct advantage over their bricks and mortar competitors when it comes to customer insight. Capturing data, identifying customers, linking them to their transactions and delivering bespoke promotions are all part of the customer experience. In store, this is a far greater challenge and demands some kind of loyalty programme, which is usually expensive and logistically demanding. In this session, eReceipts presents how they have helped Booths deliver a low cost, light touch solution that levels the playing fi eld for offl ine retailing, providing the same customer data, insight, analytics and personalised promotions as enjoyed by online retailing. Combining offl ine data with the online transactions for a single view of the customer.

Competing on price and quality is no longer enough for today’s retailers. Getting customers to keep coming back is the ultimate struggle, so how do you connect with customers to earn their loyalty and repeat business?  Learn how NAV 2013 R2 with LS POS combines mobile technology advancements with rock solid loyalty features, allowing you to run advanced loyalty programs true to the Omni channel vision. By equipping the sales associate with a mobile POS, you can provide personalised customer service on the shop fl oor and close the sale on the spot without having to go to the cash register.

The payment ecosystem is changing. The days of a simple choice between card or cash payments are long gone. In its place are innovative payment methods that reach across payment channels, push boundaries and offer a new type of connected sales experience. Modern ‘connected’ consumers not only want 24/7 access and a seamless experience. They also expect merchants to ‘know them’ and their preferences, be able to reward them, and allow them to ‘pay AND play’ with additional mobile and point of sale services.

As future checkout services evolve, the challenge for retailers will be overcoming integration complexity to harness new technologies successfully - including payment devices, managed services, retail apps, and MPOS as well as enabling contactless/NFC, new mobile wallets and value added services.

Contactless & Mobile Convenience With consumers focused on convenience and speed, it’s no surprise that retailers, whether seeking to extend services, refresh infrastructure or upgrade for PCI, are simultaneously specifying contactless acceptance for all of their installations.

In the past year, the number of European countries offering contactless payments has doubled and contactless transaction volumes have nearly tripled1. Almost a billion contactless cards have been issued and more than a million points of sale devices are now contactless enabled2.

But the most forward thinking retailers, are already thinking ahead to what other services can be enabled using the near field communication technology (NFC) that lies at the heart of these new contactless terminals.

There are now around 30.9 million smartphone users in the UK, representing 48.4% of UK residents and 60.4% of UK mobile phone users3 . According to the UK Payments Council, one in five UK consumers already use their mobile to make payments. In the next few years an increasing number of smartphones will also be NFC-enabled, able to interact with existing contactless payment terminals and allowing ‘wave-and-pay’ mobile payment and acceptance within the store.

That’s why all of VeriFone’s new VX Evolution payment terminals are not only contactless enabled but can also accept secure payment from NFC devices. At the same time, they include more memory, enhanced processing power, large and colourful touch screens, multiple applications and flexible multi-connectivity to enable more convenient and compelling services and content. It’s a new generation of payment devices that can do more than just accept cards – and increasingly that means smartphones and mobile wallets.

Smarter, Connected Services Retail-facing mobile services are also helping to knit together the virtual and physical sales experience. Consumers can browse the internet while in-store to access product information, location-based offers, vouchers, comparison sites, product reviews and purchase-tracking. Consequently, retailers must be able to appeal to consumers on the move with web-platforms that are optimised for mobile browsers and with more responsive platforms and access to mobile apps and services.

Mobile payments also allow retailers to build smart applications and NFC-enabled services around their payments platform. Combining NFC-enabled mobile POS, mobile apps and integrated back-end systems, will open the doors to a new era of micro-targeted, one-to-one selling and loyalty applications.

Soon we will start to see smart posters and NFC shelf tags strategically placed around the store. Customers will be able to collect points, validate promotions and receive retail alerts direct to their phones as they walk through the store or venue. NFC will also make redemption of vouchers and coupons at the POS fast and hassle-free. All of this will allow retailers to get closer to their customers.

MPOS & The Personal TouchIn tandem with mobile payments, the adoption of iPad retailing by high street names has shown that a new phase of MPOS retailing has already begun. Contactless-enabled MPOS devices can significantly enhance retailer-to-consumer interaction and generate tangible ROI by driving store traffic, increasing sell-ons and units per transaction (UPTs).

VeriFone is championing this with its PAYware Mobile solutions that turn smart devices into EMV and NFC enabled, PCI certified mobile payment terminals. Through MPOS devices and NFC tagging, clienteling will become a core part of many high street retailers’ future strategy along highly personalised, ‘know your customer’ services to be deployed anywhere in the store.

Getting the Basics RightUndoubtedly retailers must be able to keep pace with payment innovation to stay competitive. At the same time, they are constantly under pressure to maintain the basics - delivering transaction security, support and ensuring cost control.

Whatever the channel, protecting the customer against fraud will remain paramount. Retailers will continue to seek ways to simplify the process, reduce scope and costs either through encryption and tokenisation or by having a third party manage their transaction platform.

Maintaining trust is crucial as retailers and their payment partners continue to exploit new services and channels in order to deliver the types of payment experience necessary to keep consumers happy and coming back for more.

The electronic charity box is exactly the same idea but it works instead when we pay by card in store, online and via mobile.Pennies makes giving to charity easy and affordable for all: customers can simply press ‘YES’ on the Chip & PIN machine in-store, or click the ‘Donate’ button online or on the smart device. The request is for micro-donations – literally a few pennies (1p-99p) - either by rounding up or topping up. It’s quick: one small step in the payment process, it’s the consumers’ choice and it’s private too. There’s no pressure or commitment to give and every penny goes to charity.Connected Customer Area: Visit us and see for yourself the Pennies electronic charity box integrated into Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
