## Watch for

Run by Shoplift, which sells an A/B testing app for Shopify. The room is 50 to 60 guests, and every request needs the host's approval. An app vendor gets in mainly as a sponsor, one per category, with two guest places. The 15 awards are for brands and people, voted by the audience, and none is for an app. This is the first edition, and the date has already moved once, from 11 to 8 December.
