Technology is only as powerful as the business value it creates. πŸ’‘

So how can retail leaders ensure innovation is driving real results, not just adding new tools?

πŸŽ™οΈ In the latest episode of Women in Retail Talks, Co-Founder Melissa Campanelli sits down with Dara Meath, SVP and CTO at Build-A-Bear Workshop, to discuss what it takes to turn technology into a true business advantage.

From aligning tech initiatives with company goals to leveraging AI for meaningful impact, Dara shares how Build-A-Bear is making smarter technology investments, driving innovation and keeping business priorities at the center of every decision.

The big takeaway? Innovation isn't just about what's next. It's about what moves the business π’‡π’π’“π’˜π’‚π’“π’….
