The Retail AI Council is a member-led platform accelerating practical AI adoption in retail. We connect retailers, AI vendors, and thought leaders through curated content, events, and strategic amplification. We're not a consultancy or a marketplace—we're a network built to educate and connect those shaping the future of retail.

Membership is free,

Members can submit case studies for free. We'll publish them for free. We'll promote them for free. Retailers can read them for free. We'll ingest them into our AI tool (https://Ask.RetailAICouncil.net) for free. Anyone can use Ask.RetailAICouncil for free.

The same goes for educational videos. You can find more info at https://www.retailaicouncil.com/call-for-content.

All members can attend our in-person Open Doors events. You can find more info and register for the NRF Open Doors event at https://luma.com/c6tr55rs.

All members can attend our online Council Collab Meetups. The next one will be on December 16th. We'll launch the Luma registration page for that next week.

Members can join our committees and help set the direction for what the Council does and offers. The Industry Partner Committee is seeking new members. Let me know if you're interested and I can submit you as a candidate. It's up to each committee as to whom they offer a spot.

Industry partners can sponsor events such as The Retail Insiders Parties and Mixers. These offer the opportunity to build and foster relationships withe retail decision makers.

Please feel free let me know if you have other questions and to contact me at doug@retailaicouncil.com.

We feature contributors who bring insight—not just titles. If you have a perspective that drives real conversation around AI in retail, we’ll work with you to shape it into a webinar, article, or panel moment. Email us at info@retailaicouncil.com or Fill in the form to Partner With Us

How can I contribute content? We welcome content that moves the industry forward—whether it’s a case study, whitepaper, thought leadership POV, or event concept.

Submissions must be educational, insight-driven, and grounded in real outcomes. Promotional materials and sales decks won’t be considered.

We work with leaders across retail, e-commerce, CPG, technology, and logistics. Whether you're a global retailer, early-stage startup, or enterprise vendor, our network is built for collaboration across the retail value chain.

We help amplify your work, validate your expertise, and connect you to decision-makers actively investing in AI. For retailers, it’s about trusted education. For industry partners, it’s qualified visibility.

Absolutely. We offer multiple ways to partner—whether you're looking to lead a webinar, host an executive dinner, sponsor a local chapter, or co-create research and content that reaches the right people.

Partnerships with the Council aren’t one-size-fits-all. We work with you to design high-impact activations that connect directly with senior retail and AI decision-makers.

Submit your interest to partner with us—and we’ll align on what makes sense for your goals.
