Senior Retail Guests
Guests comprise the AI IN RETa.i.L community and by-invitation-only guests of co-hosts. The final list is curated in conjunction with AI IN RETa.i.L, and the composition of the room remains deliberately controlled to protect the seniority, relevance, and intimacy of the dinner.
The Venue
Maxime’s is one of New York’s most discreet and selective private members’ clubs; the newest opening from Robin Birley, who also owns 5 Hertford Street and Oswald’s in London.
Maxime’s club rules apply without exception. Photography is not permitted. The club’s dress code is mandatory.
From the centre of the room
Sponsors will contribute to a structured conversation during the evening, speaking from within the private dining room rather than from a stage. The setting creates a more intimate exchange, closer to a peer discussion than a conventional conference presentation.
The conversation is moderated by a senior retail leader, ideally an existing customer or peer. If required, AI IN RETa.i.L will appoint a C-suite member of its global retail community in consultation with the Naming Partner.
The purpose is to examine experience, judgement and real-world application through intelligent dialogue with the room. No sales presentation, product pitch or promotional address is permitted.
Association, not ownership
Identification is deliberately discreet. The Naming Partner’s logo appears within the private digital environment and on selected printed invitations. There is no in-room advertising, no promotional signage, no exhibition presence and no branded stage, because there is no stage.
The privilege is association with the room,
not ownership of it.
