Follow the Shopper. Find the Growth.
Innovation? Renovation? New occasions? New shoppers?
The answer is rarely just one.
In this session, we’ll bring together the latest evidence from NIQ’s 2026 Breakthrough Innovation research, shopper growth frameworks and renovation analytics to reveal how leading brands identify and activate growth opportunities before their competitors do.
Following the shopper journey from emerging need to lasting loyalty, we’ll uncover the demand spaces, occasions and category entry points where growth is created. We’ll explore what separates breakthrough innovations from the rest, and how the strongest brands use a combination of shopper understanding, innovation and renovation to turn opportunity into sustainable growth.
You’ll leave with a practical framework for identifying where growth exists, determining the right levers to capture it, and prioritising where to invest next.
