We are pleased to introduce the 5th Annual WCA eCommerce Conference, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Salzburg, Austria, from May 28 to 30, 2025. Known worldwide as the birthplace of Mozart and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Salzburg uniquely combines its deep historical heritage with an innovative spirit—an ideal setting for exploring the future of eCommerce.
Next year’s conference will be held at the Wyndham Grand Salzburg Conference Centre, a premier venue located in Salzburg’s vibrant city center. The center’s state-of-the-art facilities blend seamlessly with the architectural beauty of the Austrian Alps. Salzburg’s timeless charm, rich culture, and progressive energy provide a distinctive environment for attendees to engage with the latest eCommerce strategies and industry trends.
Our 2025 conference has been strategically scheduled to give attendees the opportunity to extend their professional experience by attending the major Transport Logistics event in Munich, from June 2 to 5. With just a short distance separating Salzburg and Munich, attendees can easily travel between the two cities by rail or road. This makes it convenient to participate in both events.
In addition to the conference, Salzburg offers much to explore. From baroque landmarks like Hohensalzburg Fortress and Mirabell Palace to its renowned arts and culinary scenes, the city invites attendees to experience its rich culture and heritage. Stroll through the picturesque Old Town, visit iconic sites, and savor Austrian cuisine while connecting with fellow industry leaders. Additionally, while in Salzburg, attendees can visit the renowned Red Bull Museum, adding an exciting cultural experience to their trip.
Join us in Salzburg for three days of inspiration, collaboration, and growth at the 5th Annual WCA eCommerce Conference. Reserve your spot now to be part of this premier event in a city where tradition and progress converge. We look forward to welcoming you to Salzburg next May to shape the future of eCommerce together!
