There are exciting things happening for grocery retailers. Frictionless checkout aims to eliminate “friction” or pain points during the store checkout process by increasing speed and convenience and dismantling barriers that might make the process more complicated or time consuming. Retailers have been experimenting with new technologies in this space, including Scan-And-Go, SmartCarts/SmartBaskets, Grab-And-Go, BOPIS, Auto-Fulfillment/Subscription and more.
Join this session to listen to some of the top startups in the Microsoft for Startups Retail portfolio talk about the different options for enabling Frictionless Checkout and Autonomous Retail. You will also hear from Anya Minbiole, the Global Business Strategy Leader in Retail at Microsoft, about the latest trends and opportunities she’s seeing in this space. We look forward to bringing together the wealth of industry knowledge Microsoft has to offer with the fresh perspectives startups provide to help you stay ahead of emerging technology unlock new opportunities.
