Retail Apparel Group chief executive Gary Novis, who heads up over 300 stores across YD, Tarocash and Connor has also joined the lineup, along with designer Peter Morrissey and Shop Til You Drop editor Alex Carlton.

Bush cemented his position as an industry leader during a 25-year career with department store David Jones, introducing labels such as Ted Baker, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein into the market and nurturing the growth of brands such as Zimmermann, Camilla, Willow Kirrily Johnston and Camilla and Marc.

The former David Jones general manager of womenswear has now launched his own consultancy firm David Bush Consulting.

The firm offers a suite of services ranging from strategic planning, online, cost management, experiential retailing and product sourcing.

“Retailing is a challenging industry and not for the faint hearted. And now is not the time to play it safe - we must continue to innovate,” Bush said.

Other major speakers include The Iconic, Asos and Colliers International, which will reveal which global retailers are heading to local shores and when.

Trend forecasting powerhouse Stylesight is a platinum sponsor, with AMP Capital taking out gold sponsorship and The Woolmark Company, Sidgreaves and Bauer Media's Shop Til You Drop as supporting sponsors.
