This informal interactive event, kindly hosted by Changi Airport Group and sponsored by DFS, will include presentations by Stephane Geffroy of Kansai Airports and Teo Chew Hoon of Changi Airport Group.
Stephen Hillam of NPD will present key findings from APTRA’s ‘Understanding Young China’ report, a comprehensive analysis of the consumption preferences and shopping behaviour of 18 to 30 year-old Chinese travellers. The Forum will be followed by a management-led tour of The Jewel Experience at Changi Airport
APTRA President Andrew Ford will address the morning plenary of the TFWA Asia Pacific Conference on Monday 13th May. He will summarise the ways in which the Association is supporting the duty free & travel retail industry in Asia Pacific, including research, training and advocacy, and update delegates on the latest initiatives

Stephen Hillam of NPD will present a summary of the ‘Young China’ report and Anson Bailey of KPMG will tackle the latest retail technology in a presentation entitled ‘Data & Innovation’ followed by a Q&A session and time for networking.
