Ecom 26
Manchester Digital
The largest senior eCommerce conference in the North West, bringing together retailers, brands, agencies and tech innovators for a full day at Sister in Manchester

MD Ecom 26 is a full-day senior-level eCommerce conference taking place in Manchester at Sister (Bruntwood SciTech). Built for retailers, brands, digital leaders, agencies, and tech innovators, it focuses on the real shifts reshaping commerce—without the hype—so decision-makers can leave with clearer priorities and practical next steps.
This is a paid event, and it’s intentionally curated to keep conversations strategic: a senior audience, peer-led perspectives, and themes grounded in what teams are dealing with right now—automation, channel fragmentation, margin pressure, and rising expectations around trust and customer experience.
If you attend, you will:
- Get a clearer view of what’s actually changing in eCommerce as journeys split across AI, social, search, and marketplaces—and what that means for your growth plan.
- Understand how agentic and autonomous commerce is evolving, including where AI shifts from “assisting” to “acting,” and how that affects conversion and control.
- Pressure-test your platform and operational priorities with insights on productivity, efficiency, and scaling teams without adding complexity.
- Build confidence around trust, risk, and resilience, with discussion around fraud, compliance, accessibility, and governance as automation accelerates.
- Make better decisions faster by learning what senior peers are doing—and what they’re stopping—when growth and profitability have to coexist.
Lunch and refreshments are included as part of the ticket, making it easier to stay focused and use the day for meaningful conversations, not logistics.
