Singapore, March 2025 – DELIVER Asia, the premier matchmaking event for retail, commerce and supply chain leaders in Europe and America celebrated an impressive launch edition this month in Singapore. Uniting the brightest minds in the industry for two days of powerful connection-building at the Suntec Convention Centre, DELIVER Asia welcomed 300 attendees, from 120 of the most influential retail brands and 25 dynamic supply chain partners. This inaugural edition has set a new benchmark for high-value networking and collaboration across the Asia retail and supply chain landscape, given 68% of meetings were reported by sponsors as resulting in a possible deal.
Stéphane Tomczak, founder and CEO of DELIVER, remarked on the significance of DELIVER’s event expansion: “We’ve expanded into Asia due to strong customer demand. Our superpower is that we’re always driven by quality, not quantity, to ensure all customers and retailers have conversations of value. We’re incredibly proud to bring these valued conversations and partnership opportunities to this dynamic market, using our unique, in-house matchmaking platform, while maintaining our commitment to carbon neutrality.”
Central to DELIVER Asia’s success is the application of DELIVER’s renowned matchmaking formula, which has revolutionised networking in Europe and America since 2016. In the month preceding the event, attending retailers and supply chain vendors used the DELIVER platform to schedule over 700 one-to-one meetings, ensuring powerful connections and productive conversations.. The formula evaluates profiles, specialties and requirements of each attendee to offer a shortlist of pre-qualified matches, guaranteeing impactful discussions.
Utsav Rao Dongre, Global Head – Cargo at SMILe shared: “Mile by mile one hits the milestone”. We at Team SMILe feel blessed to be part of the “Milestone” DELIVER Asia event, where we connected with so many influential retailers and built some exciting new collaborations!”.
The event experience was enhanced by an all-star line-up of keynote speakers from standout retail brands, including Pandora, Lacoste, Jaya Grocer (by Grab), Google, and more. These industry leaders shared groundbreaking insights on the most pressing supply chain challenges facing the retail and commerce industry, such as the growing pace of ecommerce in Asia; the emerging role Singapore is playing on the global stage; and looking to the future of retail.
“A premier event of its kind, DELIVER Asia focused on enabling quality conversations among participants. This was done through a range of initiatives such as Elite table discussions, pre-event relevant matchmaking and a deliberate attempt at prioritising quality over quantity when it comes to event size. It’s an event worth checking out for the retail and supply chain community.” commented the Business Head of Landmark Group.
VIP retailers had the exclusive opportunity to cast the deciding votes for the DELIVER Asia Vendor Awards, recognising supply chain providers who are driving the industry forward through innovation and positive change. Congratulations to this year’s winners: Geek+ for Brand Excellence and Game Changer, Honeywell for Customer Experience, Bring for Sustainability, and Swat Mobility for Rising Star.
A core pillar that sets DELIVER apart is its commitment to sustainability, operating as a carbon-neutral event. As such, all emissions related to the organisation of DELIVER Asia 2025, equivalent to 300 tonnes of carbon dioxide, have already been offset via the funding of climate projects.
