SUMMARY:Agentic Commerce 101: How AI is Transforming Retail & eCommerce
DESCRIPTION:7775 Walton Pkwy\, Suite 100\nNew Albany\, OH 43054\nFriday 6/12/26\, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm\nBe ready to interact with our featured speaker\, Ryan Lunka\, and your fellow participants. \nEat. Mingle. Make new friends.\nAI agents are turning into a real sales channel\, and retailers need to figure out what that actually means for them. \nIn this TIGER Talk\, Ryan Lunka will cut through the hype to cover the platforms\, protocols\, and payment players shaping agentic commerce right now. We’ll also cover what’s coming next. You’ll leave with a practical framework for deciding if\, when\, and how to move. \n*************** \nRyan Lunka is a product and operations leader with almost 20 years of experience across enterprise software\, consulting\, and high-growth startups\, spanning commerce\, integration\, and AI. He is VP of AI and Agentic at Aries Solutions\, where he focuses on turning emerging AI capabilities into practical systems inside enterprise commerce environments. \nHe previously co-founded and led Doohickey AI\, a venture-backed startup\, overseeing product\, fundraising\, and go-to-market. Earlier in his career\, he spent nearly a decade in consulting\, leading large-scale digital and enterprise software implementations\, and later served on the executive team at nChannel. \nHis work sits at the intersection of product\, engineering\, and operations\, with a focus on turning complex problems into systems that actually ship. He speaks about applied AI\, product strategy\, and how to operationalize real-world systems without the hype. \n*************** \nLike all TIGER Events\, this talk is FREE.\n11:00 am – Coffee\, Snacks\, & Socializing \n11:15 am – Lunch & More Socializing \n11:45 am – Introduce yourself to our crowd (10 seconds please) \n12:05 pm – Hand-off to Ryan \n1:00 pm – Wrap & Resume Socializing \n\n\n                \n                        Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    First\n                                                    \n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                            Last\n                                                            \n                                                        \n                            \n                        Email*\n                            \n                        Company*Consent to Use My Image & Voice*By registering for & participating in this event\, I am consenting to the recording of my image and/or voice.
