A VC'S VIEW ON THE FUTURE OF SHOPPING: HOW VINCENT DIALLO SEES THE GAME CHANGING
As brand and retail leaders, we’re usually focused on the next quarter and hitting targets.
But it's often useful to look a bit further out on the innovation curve to plan around big future-forward developments and opportunities. Venture Capitalists are great at dialing-in what's going to matter in the near future.
On the latest episode of Commerce Beyond Borders, Renee Hartmann and I sat down with Vincent Diallo, Investment Partner at Progression, to explore what’s next in retail tech, commerce, and consumer behavior.
Vincent shared his unique view from the world of retail tech investment — where trends like AI, spatial computing, and voice interaction aren’t just buzzwords, but have billion-dollar implications as emerging investment themes.
💡 From the explosion of live commerce (TikTok Shop hit $20B last year) to the coming shift in platforms beyond the mobile phone, Vincent's insights offer a future-facing roadmap.
Whether you're building brand strategy, experimenting with tech, or planning retail activations — this is a conversation is well worth a listen!
