What can you expect at Lightspeed Edge 2026?

We've packed the agenda with can't-miss talks.

  • Actionable data: Get to know what shoppers really want with data and findings from Lightspeed's annual consumer survey.
  • Wholesale Network: To better serve retailers, we need to change how we think about retail operations. It's time to go beyond the stockroom with the industry's leading sourcing and inventory tools.
  • Solving retail complexity with AI: AI doesn't have to mean less human connection—but it can help you get more done. Review innovative tools to see how.
  • The bigger picture: Your POS is just one part of your operations ecosystem. Hear from guest speaker and Lightspeed partner Klayvio on how to curate a tech stack that promotes growth.
