**5th China FMCG Retail Innovation Conference (All Day)**
Discount retail expansion, traditional retail adjustment, instant retail acceleration...
Over the past two years, the retail industry's transformation has been fiercely impacting the old order of the FMCG industry. Some are lost in confusion, while others seize opportunities in change and achieve exponential growth!
The 5th China FMCG Retail Innovation Conference is not a traditional retail conference, but a conference for tripartite dialogue among retail, brands, and supply chain; the core is not internal supply-side gaming, but deep understanding of what changes are happening in "consumers/demand"; the focus is not on "problems", but on the perspective of production-supply-marketing collaboration to discover incremental opportunities for the next decade!

**Parallel Forum 1: Emotional Value and New Consumption (Morning)**
In an era of abundant supply and highly homogeneous products, relying solely on functional value can no longer move people. Brands that can connect emotionally can truly shape user preferences and long-term value.
The significance of new consumption lies precisely in using emotional value to reshape the value logic of consumer goods—from meeting needs to evoking resonance, from transactional relationships to emotional connections, from traffic conversion to mindshare capture.
Emotional value is no longer just a marketing embellishment, but a fundamental capability that penetrates products, design, communities, and even business models. Understanding emotional value is understanding the future of new consumption.

**Who Should Attend:**
√ Founders and core teams of new consumer brands
√ Heads of brand strategy and user growth
√ Heads of brand marketing and product innovation
√ Researchers and investors in the consumer field
**Parallel Forum 2: Igniting Scenario Marketing (Morning)**
The incremental era was the era of deep distribution, with the core being "reach", terminals, and coverage efficiency—more coverage meant more sales;
The stock era is the era of scenario marketing, with the core being "trigger", users, and the ability to trigger users—more scenarios mean more incremental growth.
Without scenario-based reach, consumers are indifferent. Only by integrating brands and products into user scenarios can users feel something, leading to sales, and making marketing valuable!

In the post-pandemic era, consumer habits have been deeply reshaped, the three-party food delivery war continues to intensify, and demand for everything-to-door continues to explode. The instant retail track is expanding at a remarkable pace, becoming the core engine of FMCG industry growth.
How can brands and distributors leverage local commerce flows and digital infrastructure to achieve counter-trend growth in the stock market? How to efficiently integrate online and offline to seize new community consumption entry points?

**5th China FMCG Distributor Conference (All Day)**
Today's market has completely changed. We clearly see the major changes distributors face in response to environmental changes, business model changes, operational method changes, and role positioning. In the past, distributors played the role of "pushers" for brands; in the future, they must become "buyers" for retailers.
Downstream retailers will become distributors' first customers, and brands will be the second!
**Under such changes, what should distributors focus on? What new capabilities need to be cultivated? What difficulties and opportunities will they face? Are there certain directions and implementation paths?**

**Parallel Forum: The Next Stop for China's FMCG Supply: Going Global (Morning)**
In 2025, FMCG companies' going global has entered the "deep water zone": from the initial "platform selling" to current brand landing, local factory building, and channel deepening, China's FMCG is moving from an export logic to true "international operations".
From Southeast Asia, Africa, South America to Russia, Chinese companies face multiple challenges such as exchange rate fluctuations, tariff changes, and brand communication. Despite this, geopolitical restructuring has created new blank areas, and the proliferation of digital infrastructure, expansion of platform e-commerce, and deepening of local supply chain collaboration provide FMCG companies with a "second home field" for the next round of growth.
