E-commerce day under the baton of gug.cz
E-commerce day is completely free for e-shop owners, managers, operators, and admins. Those who have an e-shop as an external client must pay for a standard ticket. The two full-day and workshop line-ups in the previous year were concluded by the organizers with a successful after-party. Anyone who attended the April or October E-commerce day in Bratislava left with a wealth of valuable insights from experts in marketing, technology, logistics, and more.
New Retail Summit – conference for online and brick-and-mortar
With the subtitle "for retail." Here we have a clear date, April 23 – 24, 2025, definitely mark it in your calendar if you want to know how to take your business further. New Retail Summit regularly brings new trends, new contacts, and collaborations, which last year could have been established by over 450 participants. Organizers, such as the Slovak Alliance of Modern Trade or the Trade Union of the Slovak Republic, can connect topics for online and brick-and-mortar stores at a unique trade conference so that your business can benefit to the maximum.
Upterdam – the largest e-commerce conference in Slovakia
While the last one ended just a few weeks ago, the seventh edition of Upterdam is certainly already taking shape at this moment. After the summer, this is exactly the best dose of information for smaller and global e-shops, marketers, and e-commerce enthusiasts. Top Slovak speakers are complemented by well-constructed panels, and there is also an expo with 50+ exhibitors. We couldn't miss the last edition either. Besides the UI crew, which provided over 20 personal consultations, Peter Angelov, a senior CX consultant, also took the stage with his lecture on how CX – customer experience can boost your business upwards.
UI TIP: Are you interested in more info from Upterdam 2024 from our perspective? We summarized everything important in an article on our blog. Or fill out the form at the end of the article, and we'll send you Peter's presentation Run the CXtra mile by email.
Marketing Rulezz is a must for marketers
Although the last quarter is already in full swing, you must make time for Marketing Rulezz at the Old Market Hall in Bratislava. After all, you surely took all measures in time to ensure the peak season goes even better than last year. Innovations, brand awareness, and, of course, AI – these are the themes that Marketing Rulezz rode on in 2024. We almost forgot about the iconic after-party and the fact that we also contributed to the last edition as a conference partner. See you in 2025?
Ecommerce Bridge LIVE! you must experience
If not, at least tune in to the livestream Ecommerce Bridge LIVE! or read a report from one of the conferences that mapped 11 Slovak cities in 2024. Always different experts from the e-commerce field, panel discussions, great atmosphere, and valuable networking. You will find all this in 2025 in some nearby city, so you don't have to travel half the country for knowledge and inspiration if you're not from Bratislava.
Speaking of traveling, we can't leave out great conferences just beyond our borders.
The year 2025 opens with Czech online Expo
While in January most e-shoppers are dealing with New Year's sales and everyone is slowly recovering from the year-end sprint, February is the ideal time to recharge with inspiration. Where else but in Prague? Czech Online Expo will open the exhibition grounds February 26 – 27, 2025 and is already attracting with 23 unique summits with lectures and workshops on various online business topics (social, SEO, sales, ...) or over 150 speakers. Want to be there? For a really great price, you can even watch the livestream or purchase a pack of lectures with access for half a year. And that's a really good deal, isn't it?
Reshoper – conference + fair in one
A spring breeze of e-commerce inspiration brings another Czech event that definitely belongs in this ranking. Last time, it was enjoyed by more than 4000 participants and 130 exhibitors with a favorable offer of tools and services to improve online business. How do we know? We were at Reshoper in 2024 too, and we highly praise networking and the final after-party at the famous Terminal, where we made valuable contacts.
ShopCamp – a staple among Czech e-commerce conferences
Although ShopCamp is usually in the third quarter of the year, you can grab a ticket for this well-organized conference much earlier. And what's even better – you can even vote on what you want to hear at ShopCamp. We give the last, eleventh edition, plus points for really great CX and UX lectures and sharing experiences with successful Czech e-shops like Ovečkárna, Bikero, or Grizly.
ShopMasters conference in a more intimate spirit
After all, who said that the most important information must be shared with the masses? If you prefer a more intimate atmosphere, then ShopMasters is just for you. Lectures and seven mastermind groups, where e-shoppers speak openly about their experiences – guaranteed advice, but also failures, are a great way to drive the growth of your online business in the next season. The good news is that you can enjoy ShopMasters, under the wings of brands like Shoptet, Heureka, or Packeta, twice a year.
Although most e-commerce conferences currently do not have exact dates set for 2025, this list is a great checklist to ensure you don't miss any of the TOP events for e-shoppers and marketers. After all, we will certainly see each other at many of them.
