We are there: K5 Future Retail Conference 2026
The K5 is the central stage of the German-speaking e-commerce industry and we are right in the middle of it again. Two days in Berlin, real conversations, concrete impulses: we look forward to talking with you about the commerce topics that truly matter right now.
Our Masterclass
The highlight of our presence at this year's K5 is a masterclass in which we will demonstrate, together with one of our clients, how digital transformation in wholesale can succeed – not as wishful thinking, but as lived practice. At the heart of it is how a clear digital vision and a robust architecture can enable structural change – even, and especially, in uncertain times.
Because in the end, it is not the technologies that bring about and master such a transformation. It is the people who shape it. The right tech stack – in this case based on Spryker and Akeneo – is a means to an end, but the core of the story is how retailers and transformation partners together make the digital human.
Details about the session will follow shortly.
E-Commerce Award
We will also be represented at the E-Commerce Award in 2026 – with a strong profile in both B2B and B2C commerce. We look forward to the decision and are excited about the recognition of the industry's best projects.

What is the Masterclass at K5 2026?
The Masterclass is the highlight of our K5 presence in 2026. Together with one of our clients, we will show how digital transformation in wholesale works in practice – not as theory, but as a lived example. The focus is on how a clear digital vision and a robust architecture can enable structural change, even in uncertain times. The tech stack used is based on Spryker and Akeneo.
What technologies will be presented in the K5 Masterclass?
The Masterclass features a tech stack based on Spryker (commerce platform) and Akeneo (Product Information Management). The technology stack is deliberately a means to an end – the focus is on how people and transformation partners together shape the digital in a human way.
How can digital transformation in wholesale succeed?
Based on our practical experience, digital transformation in wholesale succeeds through three factors: a clear digital vision, a robust technical architecture, and – most importantly – the people who actively drive the change. Technologies such as Spryker and Akeneo support the process but are not an end in themselves. What is decisive is the close collaboration between the retailer and the transformation partner.
