FMCG Thrive Heads to London — A New Chapter for Grocery Retail Collaboration
Event Date: Thursday 5th March 2025
Venue: GlobalData, 100 Victoria Embankment, London, EC4Y 0DY, United Kingdom
Following the success of its debut in Leeds, we’re bringing Thrive to London, continuing the conversation around one of the most talked about and least clearly understood topics in FMCG today: AI.
Hosted at GlobalData, FMCG Thrive brings together leaders, innovators, and emerging voices from across the sector for an evening of inspiration, practical learning, and open discussion.
A Community on the Rise
The FMCG Thrive events, held in Leeds, was a sell-out success — attracting professionals from across retail, category management, and brand strategy. Attendees praised the event for its dynamic energy, thought-provoking content, and sense of genuine community.
Highlights included talks on AI in grocery retail, the power of storytelling, and future-facing retail trends, alongside lively networking sessions that sparked new partnerships and ideas.
Feedback was overwhelmingly positive:
“Great energy, practical insights, and a refreshing sense of community.”
“It felt like the start of something special.”
That first event proved there’s a real appetite for a new kind of professional gathering — one that combines meaningful conversation with actionable insight.
Looking Ahead — November 6th
Over the past few FMCG Thrive sessions, one thing has become increasingly clear: people value having space to talk openly, share experience, and connect with others who understand the realities of the industry.
That momentum now carries us to Session 3: FMCG Thrive London.
Expect a blend of expert talks, panel discussion, and interactive networking — all focused on exploring innovation, creativity, and growth in the grocery sector.
Whether you’re a returning participant or new to the community, FMCG Thrive is a space where ideas turn into action and connections turn into collaborations.
About FMCG Thrive
FMCG Thrive is a growing professional community for people in grocery retail and FMCG who want to connect, collaborate, and shape the future of the industry. Established in 2024, the network brings together voices from across brands, retailers, agencies, and academia — united by a shared goal of learning and thriving together.
We learn by listening to each other and sharing what we’ve actually seen and experienced. It’s less about having the answers and more about working things out together.
We connect by simply getting people in a room and giving them the space to talk properly. Some of the most valuable conversations are the ones you don’t plan.
We THRIVE when those conversations turn into relationships and a sense of community that carries on long after the event ends.
