Stay22 Heads to Shoptalk 2026: Expanding Beyond Travel and Into Retail

Written by Marie Lechantoux | Mar 03, 2026

Shoptalk Spring returns March 24–26, 2026 at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, bringing together retail leaders, brands, publishers, and technology partners shaping the future of commerce.

As one of the industry’s most influential gatherings, Shoptalk unites the entire commerce ecosystem, from retailers and DTC (direct-to-consumer) brands to marketplaces and ad tech platforms to explore the partnerships and strategies driving performance-led growth.

This year, Stay22 is attending for the very first time.

Hot off the announcement of our expansion into commerce, and our recent growth investment from Summit Partners, Stay22 is heading to Vegas to connect with industry leaders, brands, publishers, and technology partners redefining commerce and performance marketing.

As we continue to evolve beyond travel and scale our AI-powered monetization technology into new verticals, Shoptalk is the perfect stage to meet forward-thinking partners looking for innovative commercial tech and powerful distribution.

Retail media is evolving rapidly. Publishers are under pressure to diversify revenue. Brands demand measurable performance. Technology partners are seeking scalable distribution. Stay22 sits at the intersection of all three.

With strong momentum following our partnership with Summit Partners and our strategic expansion into Retail, Shoptalk 2026 is the perfect place to start new conversations.
