REALNESS – The Economics of Trust 

Wednesday,June17,2026 | 3:00 p.m.
UniCredit Theatre, Sala della Scherma
Fortezza da Basso, Florence 

Today, trust is more than just a brand value—it is an economic resource. 

In an age when algorithms make recommendations, products can be compared at any time, and attention has become the scarcest commodity, authenticity, credibility, and personal relationships are becoming increasingly important. 

With REALNESS – The Economics of Trust, we’re bringing three exceptional retail leaders to the stage who prove every day that sustainable success isn’t based solely on product assortments or prices, but on genuine relevance and trusting relationships. 

Moderated by Stephan Huber, publisher and editor-in-chief ofstyle in progress, the discussion will feature: 

  • Óscar Gala, MINI, Madrid 
  • Massimiliano Giannelli, S.p.A., Florence 
  • Olivia Pfeiff, Emerson Renaldi, Nuremberg 

Together, they discuss how independent retailers today build communities, foster loyalty, and thrive in a market defined by speed, scale, and digital comparability. 

See you in Florence!
