​Shoptalk wraps on June 11. The Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix kicks off June 12.

​We're marking the overlap with a private reception, co-hosted by Competera and Cognizant, a longstanding Aston Martin F1 partner.

​About the night

​Aperitifs, conversation, and a guest appearance by former F1 driver and Aston Martin F1 Team Ambassador Pedro de la Rosa, at Cognizant's Barcelona office on June 9.

​Who'll be in the room

​A mix of retail leaders, Cognizant execs, and the Competera team. No pitches, no panels, just a chance to step off the show floor before the GP takes over the city.
