Foot Locker operates in a category where brand loyalty runs deep and expectations run high. Andreas "Dre" Derkits and Joe Keen join RetailNext's Gabrielle Curione at the 13th Annual Executive Forum to trace the road from a bootstrapped conversion program to accurate traffic data in 1,400-plus North American stores — and the store designs, labor plans, and events that data now shapes.

Physical stores are being repositioned as experiential destinations, not transaction points. Kendra Scott's Emily Dougherty and Marine Layer's Laura Gonzalez join moderator Jimmy Elzaky at the 13th Annual Executive Forum to talk store formats, customization zones, hyper-local community building, and the metrics that prove an experience actually paid off.

Like many retailers before 2018, Shoe Palace ran on sales data alone. David Lizak, Manager of Retail Applications, joins RetailNext's Joe Shasteen at NRF 2026 to trace a 6+ year partnership from the first traffic counts to the Shopper to Associate Ratio (STAR) that now drives labor planning across every store format.

Jimmy Elzaky has implemented RetailNext at three luxury brands. The Toska Spa & Facial Bar CEO joins RetailNext's Joe Shasteen at NRF 2026 to explain how analytics work in a mixed-use model where one guest stays ninety minutes for a treatment and the next stays five to buy — and why data enhances a high-touch experience rather than automating it.

Marine Layer has grown from a single San Francisco store to 57 locations nationwide. Corinne Suarez, who leads retail for the brand, joins RetailNext's Joe Shasteen at NRF 2026 to explain how real-time analytics let a small, nimble team test experiential concepts, validate pop-ups, and convert peak traffic into revenue.

At NRF 2025, Dave & Buster’s and RetailNext shared how real-time data is driving smarter decisions, enhancing guest experiences, and turning complex store formats into opportunities for growth across retail and entertainment spaces.
