Where Retail Strategy Meets Innovation
Brand Experience Lab helps retailers and brands explore emerging technologies, design smarter experiences, and deploy solutions that drive measurable results across the customer journey.
Turning Strategy and Innovation into Measurable Results
We help organizations identify high-impact opportunities to improve customer experience, operational performance, and innovation across the retail journey, evaluate technologies such as AI-driven shopper analytics and unattended retail solutions in real-world environments, and support deployment through our partner ecosystem — translating strategy into practical, scalable solutions that deliver measurable business impact, not just concepts.
Strategic Clarity
We help organizations identify the right opportunities, define innovation priorities, and create actionable roadmaps aligned with business goals and customer needs. By combining industry expertise with a structured approach, we bring focus and direction to complex initiatives — ensuring efforts are grounded in measurable outcomes.
Innovation in Action
Our team evaluates emerging technologies and develops pilot programs that allow companies to explore new concepts while minimizing risk and accelerating learning. From solution design to testing frameworks, we translate innovative ideas into practical applications that can be validated in real-world environments.
Real-World Impact
Through our ecosystem of partners and technologies, we support implementation and scaling — turning validated concepts into solutions that deliver measurable business results. Invigo Retail, originally incubated within Brand Experience Lab, reflects how innovation can evolve from concept to commercialization, growing from BEL’s first internally developed solution into a standalone venture focused on advancing retail intelligence at scale.
