Store design and at-retail marketing show GlobalShop 2010 plans to help retailers draw in reluctant shoppers bound by the economy yet steeped in innovation at this year’s event at the Sands Expo & Convention Center in Las Vegas, March 10-12.

Liebmann will reveal new data from her latest How America Shops survey, which attendees will be able to purchase at a special rate. The speakers also offer the following notable trends that retailers should keep in mind:

“The combination of speed to market and innovation is more and more important,” says Wendy Liebmann, founder, CEO & chief shopper of WSL/Strategic Retail, retail strategists and shopping futurists. “Compelling new and discernibly differently will draw people back into stores.”
