What sets RetailSpaces apart?

Curated Cross-Polination.

We bring together store development, design, and construction leaders from every corner of retail—apparel, grocery, specialty, convenience, and more. The goal? Real conversations, fresh ideas, and lessons that cut across silos.

Meetings that Matter

Retailers can connect with 80+ top vendors through pre-scheduled 1:1s—no wandering exhibit floors, no stuffy boardrooms. Just focused conversations that get to the point.

Less Conference. More Connection.

Set at a laid-back resort, RetailSpaces feels more like a retreat. Think sailing, comedy nights, and themed dinner parties designed to help you connect—personally and professionally.

EDEN ROC | MIAMI BEACH, FL

An icon designed by famed architect Morris Lapidus in 1955, Eden Roc Miami Beach brings plenty of nostalgic glamour to the modern beachfront resort experience. The elite of Old Hollywood were charmed by the timeless style and upbeat ambiance, and for today’s curious, carefree, culturally attuned guest the same still holds true at this legendary resort.
