Innovators Showcase

NRF-D1-EXP-022

Introducing the NRF APAC Innovators Showcase!

We’re excited to introduce the NRF APAC Innovators Showcase – an exclusive exhibition of the top thirty innovative technology companies transforming retail in and around the APAC region.

Curated by the NRF Innovation Advisory Committee, this invite-only showcase will spotlight the latest technologies reshaping how consumers shop and how businesses operate.

Companies interested in applying must complete this short survey. Applicants will be evaluated on 4 key questions:

  • What problem does it solve for retailers?
  • How significant is the problem?
  • What product market fit has the technology achieved?
  • Is the company ready to scale?

Other important requirements for participation are:

  • Technologies must have entered the market within the past 3 years.
  • Technologies must be live with a retailer or in a pilot phase – no concept phases permitted.
  • Technologies cannot have previously participated in the 2024 NRF APAC Innovation Lab unless showcasing a brand new product or service that is entirely unrelated to the previous demonstration.
  • Technologies must be displayed in an interactive and immersive manner.

The Innovation Advisory Committee (IAC) seeks to select companies that represent the latest technologies (including artificial intelligence, machine learning, extended reality, Internet of Things, blockchain, biometrics, robotics and more).
