The RLC Global Forum Advisory Board comprises a select group of senior leaders, subject matter experts, cross-sector influencers, and academics who provide strategic counsel and help shape the direction of our programs, events, and initiatives.

Advisors play an integral role in guiding the Forum’s thought leadership, offering insights into emerging trends, industry developments, and policy shifts that impact the future of global retail.

Their contributions help ensure that our gatherings remain timely, relevant, and grounded in the realities of a rapidly evolving landscape. In addition, their expertise informs the development of RLC’s reports and white papers, helping translate key ideas into actionable, globally resonant insights.
