CEO Lori Schafer joins industry leaders to discuss how agentic AI accelerates workflows and enables autonomous decision-making for grocers

Digital Wave Technology, provider of the AI-native ONE℠ Platform powered by a Master Data Management foundation, GenAI, and agentic AI, today announced CEO Lori Schafer has been invited to speak alongside a panel of AI experts at Groceryshop 2025, Sept. 28-Oct. 1 at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas. Schafer and panelists from Microsoft and Pacvue will highlight how agentic AI can enhance operations for food retailers, from automating pricing changes and publishing content across ecommerce channels to managing real-time inventory data.

The panel session — titled “Agentic AI Solutions Boosting Efficiency” — is slated for 9:50 a.m. PT on September 30 on the Greenlight Stage at Mandalay Bay. Registration for Groceryshop 2025 is underway now.

Schafer brings to the panel a wealth of knowledge on the subject, as the company recently announced strategic agentic AI capabilities within Digital Wave Technology’s ONE Platform. With Master Data Management (MDM) at its core, the native AI platform incorporates AI agents to autonomously execute automated tasks like:

• Updating product attributes, base prices, and promotion plans
• Generating promotional assets
• Applying discounts on products
• Scanning for and flagging product compliance issues
• Managing real-time inventory updates

The panel session, part of Groceryshop 2025’s informational tracks, will be moderated by Matthew Nichols, Partner, Commerce Ventures, and will feature Schafer alongside:

• Vic Miles, Region Business Leader, Americas, Microsoft
• Rahul Choraria, CEO, Pacvue

“For grocers, every second your team spends navigating systems or questioning the accuracy of data is a second lost,” Schafer said. “Agentic AI can dramatically reduce the time it takes to get answers and take action, but it is imperative that those agents are tightly tethered to a single version of the truth.”

To visit with Schafer and Digital Wave Technology at Groceryshop 2025, schedule a meeting.
