A unique partnership between McGill University and Alimentation Couche-Tard will enable ground-breaking research and test innovations, including frictionless technologies, to transform the customer experience like never before.
Planned research focus areas include health and wellness, privacy & personalization, agile & sustainable supply chains and frictionless customer experience.
The new retail innovation lab at McGill’s Bensadoun School of Retail Management will enable ground-breaking research and test innovations, with a bold vision to blend multidisciplinary research with cutting-edge frictionless technologies to investigate and practice responsible innovation for the future of retail.
Located on the ground floor of the Bronfman Building, the retail innovation lab will offer omni-channel retail activities in a live and open setting to serve the McGill and downtown communities. It will foster collaborations between interdisciplinary and inter-faculty academics and key players in retail, emerging technologies and start-ups.
