Clarion Events, organisers of the Home & Gift show in Harrogate, have announced the launch of Harrogate @ Home on Tuesday May 5, a comprehensive, online programme that has been designed to support, celebrate and champion the retail industry during the current coronavirus pandemic.
In addition to a series of blog articles written by retail experts and exhibitors, Harrogate @ Home will include fortnightly webinars, culminating in a three-day virtual event on 20th, 21st and 22nd July.
The online programme kicks off tomorrow at 9.30am with an industry-leading webinar presented by Google Digital Garage on how to design a standout digital marketing strategy. To register, visit https://homeandgift.co.uk/webinars
Explains show director Kelly Grant: “Home & Gift, much like the retail industry, has always been a show about people and it is our mission to continue to bring our beloved industry together and champion it through shared learnings and genuine connection, even in the face of adversity.”
She continued: “Following the disappointing announcement that we had to postpone this year’s edition of the show, we wanted to ensure that the buying, networking and learning opportunities that many turn to Home & Gift for could still be accessible in some way. We hope that Harrogate @ Home provides our community of retailers and brands with the resources, connections and support needed to navigate these trying times and to keep looking ahead.”
Those who register will have exclusive access to exciting product launches and thought-led seminar sessions fronted by the show’s network of leading speakers.
