IRX is a traditional trade show with a programme of learning and trade opportunities so blends the need to see the latest solutions with the chance hear the most strategic thinking available in the retail sector
20th March 2013 – Birmingham – UK Online Seller Meetup Group
Hosted by iwoca the Online Seller Meetup will be held after the first day of Internet Retailing, at the The George V (Common Lane, Sheldon, Birmingham B26 3BP). Just a few miles from the NEC and handy for the M42 and M6 motorways, if you’re attending IRX make sure your hotel is a taxi ride away after a few beers at the Meetup.
The last couple of UK Online Seller Meetups I’ve attended both had around 50 people attending – with IRX in town this Meetup is likely to be very busy so sign up early to make sure you don’t miss out!
