The role of physical retail continues to change by evolving into connected spaces that blend technology, operations, and human interaction. According to this Forbes article, the winners will be "...the retailers that stop treating the store as an old cost center and start running it as a modern platform where software, sensors and people work together every day."

Excerpt: "For years we’ve heard predictions about the “death of the store.” E-commerce, social commerce, live shopping and now agentic commerce (AI agents that search, compare, negotiate and even purchase) all influence retail. But they haven’t killed physical retail. In many ways, they’ve upgraded it. The pressure to change is forcing stores to evolve, fast."
