Futurist Keynote Speakers - how Futurist Keynotes transform events, change thinking, enlarge vision @patrickdixon-futurist

How world class Futurist Keynote Speakers transform events, taking audiences on a journey into the future that they will never forget, enlarging vision, provoking fresh thinking, challenging strategy.

All the best Futurist Keynote Speakers in the world are global experts in engaging audiences. The key is authentic forecasting rather than wild hype. Too many Futurist Keynote Speakers make the mistake of coming out with wild predictions which are immediately rejected as crazy by a segment of the audience. Trust is lost.

I have 25 years track record as a Futurist Keynote Speaker in making accurate forecasts across many different industries, and have worked with over 400 of the world's largest companies, helping them see their own future more clearly.

But it's not enough to be accurate: Futurist Keynote Speakers also need to be engaging, entertaining, exciting to listen to, energising, informative and mind stretching.

Futurist Keynote Speakers are not industry analysts who rely on dense slides packed with historic trends data.

Futurist Keynote Speakers live in 2050 and see tomorrow as history. They ARE the future. It's a world they inhabit, as real to them as the past is to most ordinary people.

$Future of Retail in Europe, India, China, America, Africa - mergers and mega scale. Retail Keynote 70% of UK retail spend is captured by only 7-8 companies. 50% of all EU retail spend is captured by only 10 retailers. The future of retail is massive scale and consolidation - farming, clothing, fast moving consumer goods, digital and so on - warehousing, logistics, supply chains, giant stores etc. Truth is that most retail outlets in the world are in emerging markets where 85% of all retail customers live, and 99.5% of them are the size of a shipping container or smaller, much smaller if you include informal street traders. We can debate about the speed of the trend or how far consolidation will go but Europe is pointing the way ahead. Of course the upside is astonishing efficiency which means lower prices usually, but the downside is lack of choice. Take bookselling: outside of major chains, there are few book outlets today in Europe, and most of them are small. But big chains only have limited shelf space so only a fraction of the 200,000 new titles in the UK each year will ever make it to a supermarket shelf. The rest will mostly have to fight online for attention of readers. Books are one thing, but fashion is quite another. If you wander into Shopping Malls from Beijing to Rio de Janeiro you find the same thing: almost identical chains selling identical range of items. Same in airport Duty Free areas globally. So shopping is becoming very boring - an additional factor driving online sales and further contraction in traditional retail outlets.$
