Salsify Academy and Mainstage Keynotes
Hands-On Learning To Boost Salsify Skills and a Look Into What’s Next
The Summit launched on Monday with Salsify Academy training sessions and the mainstage keynotes. Designed to level up customer skills and instill confidence in the platform's future, this day offered hands-on learning with Salsify experts, practical walkthroughs, and an overview of both the digital and agentic shelves.
Attendees explored everything from Intelligence Suite workflows to streamlined content syndication best practices. Armed with new technical skills, attendees closed the first day with a powerful look at Salsify’s product vision, including how to master the agentic era without losing essential human control.
Agentic Commerce Day
Advanced Strategies and Peer Insights To Accelerate Digital Shelf Success
Agentic Commerce Day built on the momentum of the day before with role-based tracks and advanced strategies for the new era of ecommerce. The day featured targeted sessions for ecommerce, IT, marketing, and operations teams, each designed to solve challenges and accelerate business outcomes.
With solution clinics, expert panels, and customer-led success stories, attendees had direct access to the knowledge and community that powers the Salsify ecosystem. It was a day for sharing, learning, and scaling what works.
“We’re in a new era, the agentic era, where the tactical work, the repetitive work, the work that slows your team down, is increasingly automated. We’re continuing to invest in AI capabilities to help you accelerate even faster.”

Digital Shelf Institute (DSI) Day
Big Ideas and Expert Perspectives on the Future of Commerce
DSI Day closed out the week with a forward-looking lens on commerce. Hosted by the Digital Shelf Institute (DSI), the agenda brought together industry leaders, analysts, and changemakers to explore the future of product experience, consumer behavior, and omnichannel growth.
Keynotes, panels, and fireside chats delivered bold insights and sparked critical conversations — all focused on what’s next for brands competing in the agentic era. The day inspired attendees to think bigger and lead with innovation in the face of rapid retail evolution.
“The amount of content needed by brands is expected to increase by 5x to accommodate the needs of agents. The threat isn’t AI replacing the work that we do. It just changes the work that we do. And it is important to open a transparent dialogue about that.”
