Big Ideas Session

From Pilots to Profits—Agentic AI with Proven ROI, at Scale

PittaRosso and Scarpe&Scarpe

Scaling AI remains one of retail’s greatest challenges. In this forward-looking session, Prashant Agrawal, CEO of Impact Analytics, and Valentina Labate, Chief Strategy Officer for PittaRosso and Scarpe&Scarpe, will share how Agentic AI is enabling organizations to move beyond automation to autonomous decision-making with measurable impact. IDC research shows that while 90% of AI pilots fail to scale, those that do deliver $3.5 back for every $1 invested, proving that success requires the right strategy and execution.

This session will highlight real-world use cases already driving results: Phantom Optimizers that deliver stronger margin lift, Dynamic Pricing Agents that respond instantly to demand shifts, and Replenishment Agents that anticipate needs before stockouts occur.

Retail leaders will also gain a tactical playbook for success, how to identify scalable, high-impact opportunities, set the right guardrails, and operationalize agentic workflows that drive EPS and EBITDA growth in the current fiscal year.

From Chaos to Clarity: AI-Powered Pricing & Inventory as the New Margin Engine

Retailers are navigating unprecedented pressure on both profitability and customer experience. Stockouts erode sales, overstocks drain margin, and legacy playbooks can’t keep pace with volatility. In this session, Prashant Agrawal, CEO of Impact Analytics, and Chris Norris, Retail Director, Group Platforms and Digital Technology, Al-Futtaim, will reveal how AI-native pricing and inventory are working together as a new margin engine, delivering results today, not tomorrow.

The discussion will feature practical use cases where AI agents are driving impact at scale: pinpointing SKU-level elasticity to sharpen competitive strategy, managing KVIs/KVCs to protect price image while unlocking incremental margin, simulating promotional and competitive scenarios before execution, automating price updates and replenishment triggers, reallocating stock dynamically across stores and channels, and modeling disruption scenarios to maintain agility.

Retail leaders will leave with actionable steps to boost in-stock rates, reduce waste, and lift gross margin and EPS, demonstrating that AI is no longer experimental, but a bottom-line growth driver.
