SAVANT RETAIL CONGRESS –

 MUNICH 2026

ECOMMERCE & MARKETING

EMPOWERING ECOMMERCE IN DACH:
FROM INSIGHTS AND INNOVATION TO IMPACT, GROWTH, AND TRANSFORMATION

The DACH region—encompassing Germany, Austria, and Switzerland—is not just a high-value eCommerce market; it’s a blueprint for where digital retail is headed. Germany alone exceeded €100 billion in online sales in 2024, while Austria and Switzerland continue to punch above their weight with highly engaged, digitally savvy consumers. With over 90% internet penetration and a growing appetite for personalized, privacy-conscious, and sustainable shopping experiences, the region is setting new standards in what modern commerce should look like. From social commerce surges to the booming re-commerce movement—where nearly 60% of German consumers have bought secondhand or refurbished—DACH is driving meaningful, values-led transformation.

Savant eCommerce Munich brings together the brands, innovators, and disruptors shaping this evolution. From AI-powered personalization and CRM innovation to marketplace strategy, re-commerce, and data privacy—this is where DACH’s future of retail takes center stage.

Join your peers to explore actionable insights, proven strategies, and real-world case studies—all in a region where trust, transparency, and technology define success.
