April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia PROGRAM April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia Latin American Retail at Center Stage Latin American Retail has taken a dominating position, occupying the top three positions and seven of the top 30 overall at 2013 A.T. Kearney’s Global Retail Development Index (GRDI). A strong and growing middle class, controlled inflation, sustained economic growth, and continued economic and political stability have increased consumer and investor confidence and created a favorable environment for retail development. The expanding middle class continues to offer important growth opportunities, particularly as the retail footprint expands beyond main cities into the second and third tiers, where consumers increasingly prefer modern retail. And many local and regional retailers are providing strong competition for many of the international leaders. South America is blossoming as Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay take the top three spots in the Index. Peru, Panama, and Mexico also shine, but some other markets, such as Venezuela, Argentina and Bolivia have room for improvement. RECon Latin America: The Global Shopping Center Convention of Latin America ICSC’s RECon Latin America is the most important retail real estate event of the year in the region.

David Toledo Esquenazi RECon Latin America 2014 Program Planning Committee Chair General Manager, Unico Centros Comerciales Dear Friends, Shopping centers have become in recent years the prime place for shopping and entertainment. Today these are places for recreation, where their visitors discover a rich collection of entertainment options that promote meeting spaces. The convenience, variety, entertainment, and security that these spaces offer to their users have been key factors that have driven the rapid growth of large-format retailers in Latin American cities. On behalf of the ICSC, I invite you to enjoy RECon Latin America 2014, an event that gathers the leading players of this growing shopping center industry in Latin America and throughout the world, which makes it the ideal venue to share experiences, learn about the latest trends in the industry, and strengthen business relations. In addition, you will have the opportunity to enjoy one of the most beautiful cities in Latin America: Cartagena de Indias in Colombia, a country that in recent years has shown outstanding growth thanks to the rise of the middle class and the strengthening of intermediate cities. These conditions have promoted the construction of large retail developments, placing this Latin American country as one of the most attractive nations for investors. We give you a cordial welcome to Colombia, a country which we hope you have the pleasure of visiting during your attendance to this convention. We hope that you can join us. Nicolas Jaramillo Restrepo RECon Latin America 2014 Host Committee Chair Vice President, Projects and Investment CONSTRUCTORA CONCONCRETO S.A. 3 April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia We look forward to seeing you in Cartagena! Cartagena de Indias, the Jewel of the Caribbean, was chosen to host RECon Latin America 2014. A declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO, this city has been called the third-best destination in North America by Condé Nast Traveler magazine.

Join Brook Scott, CBRE’s Head of Americas Occupier Research, to learn how global economic and market trends are impacting the outlook for retail in Latin America in 2013 and beyond. Speaker: Brook Scott Interim Head of Research Americas and Head of Occupier Research and Consulting CBRE San Francisco, CA, USA 6 April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia 9:30 – 10:00 am 10:30 – 11:00 am In 2014, emerging markets will continue to drive global economic and consumer market growth. Retail companies are overcoming the many challenges of operating in emerging markets by tailoring their strategies accordingly. Companies are looking beyond the traditional BRIC markets, onto second tier markets such as the Future 7 (Argentina, Egypt, Indonesia, Mexico, South Africa, Turkey, and Vietnam) and also beyond to frontier markets, which are experiencing the fastest growth. Emerging markets are expected to see real GDP growth of 5.5% in 2014, growth more than twice that of developed markets. Our speaker will explain where the opportunities lie and how to take advantage of them. Over the last decade, Latin America has reduced poverty, lowered inequalities, and achieved significant economic growth. These remarkable accomplishments have helped boost human development and, thereby, improved the lives of many. Notwithstanding these achievements, however, levels of violence and crime in the region have climbed. It was in this context that the UNDP Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean decided to focus its 2013 Regional Human Development Report on citizen security. Without citizen security, countries’ efforts to realize their objectives for inclusive economies and societies and consolidated democracies can be, and often are, curtailed or frustrated. Come and listen to one of our region’s most revered businessman who has devoted his last Retail in Emerging Markets: The BRICS Markets and Beyond years to improve human and social development in Latin America. Speaker: Human and Social Development in Latin America Matthew Oster Research Coordinator Euromonitor International Chicago, IL, USA Speaker: Dionisio Gutierrez President Fundación Libertad y Desarrollo Guatemala City, Guatemala 10:00 – 10:30 am Forgotten Continent: The Battle for Latin America’s Soul. Democracy and Development in Today’s Latin America In Forgotten Continent: The Battle for Latin America’s Soul, Michael Reid, The Economist’s editor for the Americas, has amassed an impressive body of statistics, anecdotes, and arguments to help us understand better, if incompletely, the conundrum of Latin America. The reality of the booming Latin America of today is as confounding as the crisis years at the turn of the millennium. What’s different now from the lost years of the 1998–2003 economic downturn, as Reid points out, is a sense of cautious optimism brewing in the hemisphere. According to a new Gallup International poll, Latin Americans were the most optimistic of any regional group in the world about the future. Speaker: Michael Reid Americas Editor The Economist London, United Kingdom 11:00 – 11:30 am Coffee Break and Networking at Deal Making and Trade Exposition 11:00 – 11:30 am Book Signing: Forgotten Continent: The Battle for Latin America's Soul by Michael Reid 11:30 am – 12:15 pm Latin American Shopping Center Industry Overview The development of shopping malls is booming throughout Latin America thanks to an increase in foreign investment, local pent-up demand and improved economies. Industry leaders of the region will provide an overview of the state of the industry from a regional perspective.

Maalouf ICSC Trustee Director Constructora Sambil Caracas, Venezuela Director Alto Palermo Buenos Aires, Argentina Chief Executive Officer Mexico Retail Properties (MRP) Mexico City, Mexico Executive Vice President Patio Santiago, Chile President Corporacion Lady Lee San Pedro Sula, Honduras 12:15 – 1:00 pm New Sources of Finance for the Latin American Real Estate Market The expansion of retail chains, the appearance of exclusive boutiques and consumers’ shopping habits are boosting commercial construction this year in Latin America. Investors in real estate are looking at double-digit returns. Growth of the purchasing power of the region’s middle classes has spurred commerce and an increase in opportunities for new commercial projects in construction. But capital sources are changing rapidly in form and origin. From the IPO’s frenzy of few years back in Brazil to this year’s boom of the Mexican “FIBRAS”, the funds are not necessarily coming from the most developed economies at this point, but from domestic and regional capital and money markets. Co-Moderators: Tim Gifford, FRICS Senior Vice President, Global Capital Markets CBRE Miami, FL, USA Jeronimo Bosch Jairo Alberto Corrales C.

The process of developing, designing, and building or repositioning a shopping center is the result of detailed planning, teamwork, effort—and just as importantly, patience. Managing and controlling that process is critical to overall success. Given today’s economy and its highly competitive nature, knowing the principles and practices of retail development and project management can make the difference between taking control of the marketplace or losing control to your competition. Moderator: Carlos Hernan Betancourt, CSM Jordan Malugen Carlos Andres Arango Augusto Arellano Juan Luis Aristizabal Director Prudential Real Estate Investors (PREI) Mexico City, Mexico Panelists: SMD Investment Banking Evercore Partners Mexico Mexico City, Mexico Executive Director Colombian Shopping Centers Association (ACECOLOMBIA) Cali, Colombia Panelists: President Ospinas Bogota, Colombia President Conconcreto Medellin, Colombia 8 April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia 1:30 – 2:45 pm Luncheon 2:10 – 2:40 pm Keynote presentation: Perspective on History of the Colombian Shopping Center Industry Colombia was one of the first countries to develop shopping centers in Latin America. The industry has evolved dramatically since its beginnings in the 1970’s. Unicentro Bogota, the first shopping center developed by Pedro Gomez in 1976, was definitely ahead of its time and laid the foundation for a thriving and successful industry. Let’s hear from its pioneer and precursor on where our industry is heading in Colombia. Speaker: Pedro Gomez President Pedro Gomez y Cia. CBRE Bogota, Colombia 2:45 – 3:30 pm Colombia as the Top Investment Destination for Latin American Developers Several companies have opted to arrive or expand their businesses in Colombia. Colombia’s nominal GDP is the fourth largest in the region. Furthermore, inflation has remained subdued, ranging from 2% to 4%, poverty has decreased, and the middle class has grown over the last few years. In fact, “Doing Business 2013” ranked the country 45th out of a sample of 185 economies. In Colombia, the shopping industry has shown significant growth in recent years. According to Fenalco, the industry produces $15 million annually, which represents a significant portion of the economy, with an estimated investment of $2 million for the construction of 50 more projects. These are some of Colombia’s characteristics where companies from Latin America and abroad have entered. Recently, the Chilean retail holding company Cencosud acquired 100% of the assets of Carrefour in that country for $2.6 million, enabling them to enter the retail industry. Burger King announced its plan to open 100 new stores by 2017. Brands such as Forever 21, Gap, Victoria’s Secret, Ripley, and Perry Ellis recently entered the country. Also, developers from different countries are entering the market or are planning to do so. In this session we will hear the players share their experiences.

Research conducted by the U.S. Travel Association, the U.S. Department of Commerce, and the worldwide destination management organizations indicate that shopping and dining consistently rank as the top two activities of all travelers. The travel industry recognizes the importance of these activities in their clients' itineraries. Shopping center developers, urban shopping districts, regional malls, lifestyle centers, retailers, restaurants, and major travel destinations recognize the impact that visitor spending has on their overall retail sales and tax revenues. Indeed, The Dubai Mall, the world’s largest shopping mall, became the world’s most visited shopping destination in 2011, attracting some 54 million visitors according to mall officials. Speaker: Clay B. Dickinson Executive Vice President, Hotels & Hospitality Group Jones Lang LaSalle Washington, DC, USA 4:00 – 4:30 pm Coffee Break and Networking 4:00 – 4:30 pm Book Signing: Copying with Crisis in a Complex World by Martin E. Cooper April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia 4:30 – 5:15 pm Luxury Shopping Malls and Their Potential in Latin America Luxury retailing is poised for a transformation as several forces reshape the environment, forcing luxury retailers and brands to balance brand exclusivity with the pressure to scale and grow. While several sectors have struggled since the slowdown in 2008, luxury retail has, more or less, held its own and even posted growth. In Latin America, shopping centers that offer luxury brands are proliferating with good market response. Latin American consumers will continue to shop at 5th Avenue, Rodeo Drive, and Bal Harbor; but customers are increasingly looking for the convenience of having shopping centers of the same quality in their cities.

The study of crisis management originated with the large scale industrial and environmental disasters in the 1980s. Three elements are common to a crisis: a threat to the organization, the element of surprise, and a short decision time. The speakers, experts in crisis management and communications, will delve into various strategies for handling crises effectively and will discuss the preparatory steps that lay the foundation of a solid crisis management plan.

However, there is currently no systematic mechanism governing how social concerns should be captured at different stages of a PPP project. This public private people partnerships (P4) process framework embraces the bottom-up participative strategies which bring the public engagement clearly visible for infrastructure planning and policy making. Engaging the end-users in the 4P development processes opens previously unseen potential for including consumerist possibilities for cities and developers. In this context, the 4P-based urban development process has created possibilities for engaging new proactive and positive participation methods and solutions, not only for the early stages of urban development process (planning and design), but also for construction, operation and management of local economic and social infrastructure. In this panel session we will learn how shopping centers can adapt to the new urban development realities through P4. RECon Latin America Gala Dinner at the Charleston Santa Teresa Cartagena Hotel At the beginning of the 17th century, Mrs. María de Barras y Montalvo, a wealthy noblewoman of Cartagena, ordered the construction of the Santa Teresa convent in order to spend the last years of her life with the Carmelita nuns. This is the reason why the first convent in the walled city was built. Towards the end of the colony, the peaceful corners that served as a basis of inspiration and meditation were interrupted by the war for independence. After the establishment of the new republic, the nuns were forced to abandon the corresponding facilities of the old convent, which were then converted into a consecutive series of institutions including: a barrack, a jail, an all-girls school and a pasta factory. Throughout this time, the building suffered several architectural modifications and a considerable portion of the initial construction was transformed to the republican style. Surrounding this luxury hotel, Cartagena is a walled city infused with unmatched world heritage. With a privileged location that is blocks away from the Getsemaní Convention Center and just minutes away from the contemporary city, the history, flavor and mystique of Cartagena are all found here, at Charleston Santa Teresa. Each corner of Charleston Santa Teresa evokes Cartagena's historic past, which lives on in union with today's standards for comfort and luxury.

Even in markets with slowing economies, retailers' online sales have proven resilient. E-Commerce has not evolved in the same way in every market around the globe; however, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America all see very different market dynamics.

Our speaker, Julian Treasure, is a world expert in sound and how to maximize revenue in shopping centers through ensuring that the ambient sound is conducive to purchasing and increasing dwell time. “Good sound is good business for clients such as Harrods, Nokia, BP and many major shopping malls across Europe”, Treasure says. His book, Sound Business, is the 12 April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia 12:00 noon – 12:30 pm Creating an Omni-Channel Vision for a Retailer Global Retailers Next Stop?—Frontier Markets Advancements in digital technology are causing a seismic shift in consumer purchase behavior. Customers today can access multiple channels to execute a retail purchase, leading to the requirement that all channels work seamlessly to support the brand and the experience. This trend started with the Internet, but is now being advanced in a very dramatic and rapid fashion due to mobile and other digital technologies. Consumers, empowered with these digital communication devices, are pressuring organizations to deliver compelling and innovative experiences to retain top-of-mind and share of wallet. As distinctions between purchase channels blur, companies must build a singular view and communication strategy with their customers, which can include touch points such as call centers, direct mail and catalog, the Internet, mobile, physical selling locations, and social media. In this session, Steven Keith Platt, PRI Director and Research Fellow, will present the driving forces behind these touch points and how retailers are approaching omni-channel marketing. Results from research on retail omni-channel adoption will also be presented. South America is a significant growth market for retailers, with seven countries (Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Chile, Panama, Colombia, and Mexico) ranked in the 2013 A.T. Kearney Global Retail Development Index™ (GRDI). Sub-Saharan Africa continues to build momentum, with Botswana and Namibia in the rankings and a few other nations ranked just outside the top 30. Africa is a dramatic retail opportunity, if business and political risk can be managed. A number of small countries with unique characteristics of wealth and consumer focus are ranked in the GRDI, including Uruguay (3rd), Mongolia (7th), Georgia (8th), and Armenia (10th). For luxury retailers, these are new-found hubs. For general retailers, these countries can be the beginning of a regional strategy. As developed markets face flat or anemic growth, developing markets are sources of important growth. Shopping centers and malls are driving much of the progress in organized retail in developing countries, as they solve regulatory and real estate issues for many retailers. Speaker: Speaker: Maria Eugenia Fanjul Partner & Vice President A.T. Kearney Bogota, Colombia Steven Keith Platt Director & Research Fellow Platt Retail Institute Hinsdale, IL, USA 12:30 – 1:00 pm The Future of Retailing and Shopping Habits What we are seeing today is only the beginning. Soon it will be hard even to define e-commerce, let alone measure it. Is it an e-commerce sale if the customer goes to a store, finds that the product is out of stock, and uses an in-store terminal to have another location ship it to his/her home? What if the customer is shopping in one store, uses his/her smartphone to find a lower price at another, and then orders it electronically for in-store pickup? How about gifts that are ordered from a website but exchanged at a local store? Experts estimate that digital information already influences about 50% of store sales, and that number is growing rapidly. Come to listen about how the retail consumer is changing (and how he/she will evolve), particularly with regards to the use of technology, and the impact it’ll have across different retail categories, with a focus on Latin America, how companies can respond to these changes (and what some companies are already doing) and what you can do to position your company for success in this challenging environment. Speakers: 13 1:00 – 1:30 pm John Long Rodrigo Mayo Partner Bain & Company Dallas, TX, USA Principal Bain & Company Mexico City, Mexico 1:30 – 2:45 pm Luncheon 2:10 – 2:40 pm Keynote Presentation: The Cult of the Luxury Brand Our speaker co-authored “The Cult of the Luxury Brand”, the first book to explore how and why an amazing “luxeplosion” is rocking Asia, sweeping up not just the glitzy upper crust, but secretaries toting their Burberry bags, junior executives sporting Rolex watches, and university students in Ferragamo shoes. Hong Kong boasts more Gucci and Hermes stores than New York or Paris. China’s luxury market is growing with such gusto that it will single-handedly become the biggest by 2014. Even India, the new kid on the luxury block, has 3-month waiting lists for hot items, while in Tokyo, the epicenter of the cult, 94% of women in their 20s own a Louis Vuitton bag. The cult of the luxury brand is so powerful that Asian consumers account for as much as half of the $80 billion dollar global luxe industry. It offers a glimpse of the thriving retail scene, from glorious flagship stores in Tokyo to bustling local markets in Seoul, and compares the various consumer segments to understand the inner motives for their obsession. Is Latin America following the same path? Come to hear the speaker explain the luxury retailer paradox of simultaneously pumping up their product’s status while pumping it out to the masses. He outlines a powerful model that explains the spread of luxury in developed markets, while predicting the future course for emerging markets. He also examines the phenomenon of “genuine fakes”, impossible to tell from the originals and detracting from their sales. Speaker: Paul Husband Founder & Managing Director Husband Retail Consulting Hong Kong April 7–10, 2014 Cartagena de Indias Convention Center Cartagena, Colombia 2:45 – 3:30 pm Social Media, New Technologies and their Impact on Sales Marketers have turned a corner in the way they think about social media. No longer viewed as a discrete communications vehicle, social and digital platforms are increasingly developing into all-around marketing tools where brand strategy and purpose must be explicit. Channel planning is affected and media budgets are shifting to content creation and management.

Over the past two decades, franchising has been one of the largest growth industries in our region’s economy. Franchising is no longer just for roadside motels and quick service restaurants; today, companies are franchising their businesses in industries as diverse as mortgage brokerage firms, medical spa treatment centers, auto repair shops and veterinary clinics. There are many ways in which a business can structure its growth, but franchising has become a very popular and successful method of business expansion. This session will teach us how franchising has evolved in Latin America and how Latin American retailers can use this model to grow their brands globally. Co-Moderators: Ricardo Camargo Executive Director Brazilian Franchise Association (ABF) Sao Paulo, Brazil Colombia was left out of global retailers’ development plans for many years. This created the conditions for domestic retail concepts to emerge and evolve. These concepts were not necessarily a duplication of foreign models, but rather retail concepts clearly tailored to the needs and tastes of the local market. But in these times in which major global chains consider Colombia as one of the top target markets to enter, those Colombian retailers that emerged, thrived, and evolved into world-class quality concepts are also seeking to expand internationally. In this session, the speakers will present their development plans and how they plan to conquer the world.
