Radikal

The practical ecommerce event for Benelux brands serious about entering the UK market.

Antwerp Stadion

On 26 May, Radikal and Quickfire, Shopify Platinum Partner are bringing together ecommerce founders and managers at Bosuilstadion in Deurne for a practical evening on expanding into the UK markets.The UK is the largest single English-speaking ecommerce market in Europe. For Belgian merchants, that means no language barrier and a consumer base that shops online frequently. Brexit restructured the operational side completely though. It now involves customs declarations, UK VAT registration, DDP shipping and returns across a customs border. Brands that launch without accounting for this typically see it in their conversion rate and margins before they see it anywhere else.This evening is built to help you navigate those challenges. ✦ WHAT TO EXPECTPanels, discussions and Q&amp;As built around real experience. Every session is designed to give you something concrete to take back to your business. No sales pitches, no product demos. ✦ SPEAKERS<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeroenbijnens/" title="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeroenbijnens/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Jeroen Bijnens</a>, Omnichannel &amp; Brand Manager at BouncewearBouncewear is a basketball specialist with over two decades in the game, bringing together the leading brands in the category: Nike, Air Jordan, Adidas, Under Armour, Stance, and everything that goes with them.Entering a new market is one thing. Building actual relevance there is another. Bouncewear didn't crack the UK overnight. It took time to understand that a market that looks familiar can operate very differently in practice.Jeroen built that understanding through experience. <a href="https://linkedin.com/in/arnarsigurdsson/?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base%3BcTy4AyHKSf6syVx59hhndg%3D%3D" title="https://linkedin.com/in/arnarsigurdsson/?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base%3BcTy4AyHKSf6syVx59hhndg%3D%3D" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Arnar Sigurdsson</a>, Operations at Rogue Fitness EuropeRogue Fitness started in a garage in Columbus, Ohio in 2006 and has since grown into one of the most recognised names in strength and conditioning equipment, built on a straightforward principle: manufacture well, source locally, and invest in the people doing the work.Taking that operation into Europe is a different challenge entirely. Arnar runs operations at Rogue Fitness Europe and knows firsthand what it means to bring a brand with a strong American identity into a market with its own expectations, its own logistics, and its own pace. <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-de-boeck-ppc-michael/" title="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-de-boeck-ppc-michael/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Michaël de Boeck</a>, Founder &amp; Chief strategist at ProminenceProminence is a performance marketing agency built around profitable growth rather than reach or impressions. They combine financial modelling with multi-platform media strategy, working with ecommerce brands that care about margins as much as visibility.Michaël has worked with several brands expanding into the UK market and knows how the paid media landscape there differs from what works in Belgium and the Netherlands. He'll be covering TikTok Shop — a channel that's already part of the UK ecommerce mix but hasn't yet landed on most Belgian brands' radars. ✦ WHO IS THIS FORThis ticket is for ecommerce founders and managers with a live online store who are considering or preparing for UK expansion.To keep the evening focused and valuable for everyone in the room, all registrations are reviewed.Please note that registrations from agencies, technology partners or freelancers will not be approved. ✦ WHENDoors open at 18:00 Sessions from 19:30 to 21:00 Networking opportunities between and after sessions. ✦ GETTING THEREFree parking is available at the stadium itself, in the large car park in front of Tribune 1 on Gallifortlei.
