The era of traditional commerce is being superseded by a fundamental reconfiguration of the retail value chain.

This compendium provides global retail executives with a strategic roadmap to transition from reactive omnichannel models to becoming a 'Frontier Firm' that maximizes the synergy between human talent and intelligent agents.
