8:25 AM Keynote Fireside Chat: Rebuilding a Modern Brand: A Turnaround Playbook for Acquisition, Transformation, and Growth
Join David Lui, CEO of KIT + ACE, for a candid fireside chat on the turnaround that has the Canadian brand back stronger than ever, with real momentum heading into its next chapter. David will unpack the four-phase playbook — Inherited State → Rebuild → Proof → Scale — and share how design-led discipline, an efficient integrated supply chain, and disciplined growth are reshaping what a modern Canadian brand can look like in a fast-changing retail landscape.
• The four-phase turnaround playbook: from reset to renewed momentum
• An efficient, integrated supply chain that runs retail and e-commerce as one business, not two channels
• Reimagining a Canadian brand for a new generation without losing what made it loved
• Why disciplined acquisitions accelerate capability, not just top-line scale
Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining David.
