Brands Who Attend
What is Toucan Talks?
Toucan Talks is our twice-yearly gathering for the people doing the work: brand owners, e-commerce leads and marketplace managers navigating Amazon, TikTok Shop and retail media in real time. No vendor pitches, no panels reading from press releases. Just honest conversation about what's working, what isn't, and what's coming next, over [drinks and food] with people who get it.
Hosted by Toucan. Shaped by the room.
Why People Come
-
1
The conversations you can't have on LinkedIn. Off the record, brand to brand. What spend levels actually look like, which bets paid off, where the bodies are buried.
-
2
The room is the product. We cap attendance and curate the guest list so every conversation is worth having. FMCG, beauty, food and drink, consumer brands; the people you'd want to compare notes with.
-
3
Zero pitch policy. Toucan hosts. We don't sell from the stage, and neither does anyone else.
