Retail in the Real World
IRDC is my favorite conference. It’s large enough to attract great participation from retailers, designers and industry partners, but still small enough to have a wonderful culture of openness that makes it easy, comfortable, and even fun to meet new people, connect, and collaborate. I was thrilled that 2011’s IRDC was held in my own city of San Francisco and once again I walked away from a great week of diverse events, presentations and discussions feeling inspired. In an effort to keep those conversations going I thought I’d share some of what I found most inspiring.
