The Flywheel Network · 2027 Partner Series · UK

Better growth happens when the right people build together.

In 2027, The Flywheel Network will bring Shopify operators and the teams shaping e-commerce together for practical, operator-led events across the UK. We're proposing a co-created programme with Omniconvert, Growave, Nosto, Klaviyo and Stape — starting with a January online event on what AI can, and cannot, do for e-commerce growth.

The Network

The best advice you'll ever get
comes from someone who's done it.

There are thousands of ecommerce consultants, agencies, and platforms telling you what to do. What's rare is a room full of operators who have actually done it — built the flows, run the tests, hit the walls, and found what actually moves the needle in your category.

The Flywheel Network is built around that room. Not as a conference. Not as a sales funnel. As a network of practitioners who learn together and grow faster because of it. Merchants and operators lead the sessions; partners contribute useful expertise — never product demos or sales pitches.

The events are where the network activates. But the value of belonging compounds long after the room empties.

"The insight that changed how we think about retention didn't come from a vendor deck. It came from a founder in the room who'd already made our mistake."

A founding member
01
Peer-sourced playbooks
Every session is anchored by brands sharing what they've actually tested — not consultants hypothesising. Real numbers, real failures, real wins.
02
Curated attendance, not open registration
Operators are invited by name, and every room is kept deliberately small. The quality of the room is the product — and we protect it.
03
Depth over breadth
Each event goes deep on one theme — retention, discovery, personalisation, lifetime value, measurement — instead of skimming everything.
04
Ongoing, not one-off
A series means the network grows with each event. The operators you meet in January are still in the room at the next one.
05
No vendor stages, no hidden pitches
Partners educate. Merchants present. Every attendee leaves with something to act on — not something to buy.

Community

Where operators find their people.

The network between events
Members stay connected between events — sharing learnings, asking questions, introducing each other to the right people. The event is the spark. The community is the fire.
Benchmarks that mean something
Aggregated, anonymised data from members in your category and revenue tier — not from a generic ecommerce report built for everyone.
Founding member access
The brands that join for the 2027 programme shape what the network becomes. Founding members get permanent recognition, early access to future events, and a seat at the table.
The flywheel spins
because the
people push it.

Every high-growth ecommerce brand has a flywheel — a loop where great customer experience drives repeat purchase, repeat purchase drives data, and data drives smarter decisions. But most operators are trying to build theirs alone.

We believe the fastest way to build your flywheel is to be in a room with people who've already figured out a piece of it. Someone in your category has already solved the problem you're sitting with today.

Not through a course. Not through a consultant. Through the honest, peer-to-peer exchange that only happens when the right operators are in the same room — or the same network.


The Programme

Two parts.
One year of useful conversations.

2027Online + In-PersonUKInvite Only
Part 1
AI in E-commerce: What’s useful, what’s hype, and what operators should do next
January 2027 · Online. A practical, operator-led session with real use cases and an honest discussion of where AI can improve customer experience and business performance — and where it can’t. Merchants lead; partners contribute expertise, not product demos.

Proposed Partners

Five perspectives.
One better growth conversation.

E-commerce growth doesn't come from one tool or one tactic. It comes from understanding customers, helping them find the right products, earning their loyalty, showing up with relevant messages and measuring what works.

Omniconvert
Customer Intelligence

Customer intelligence and growth opportunities — surfacing the signals in behaviour data that show operators where the next stage of growth actually is.

Customer IntelligenceGrowth Opportunities
Growave
Loyalty & Advocacy

Loyalty, rewards, referrals and advocacy — how the best brands turn one-time buyers into repeat customers, and repeat customers into advocates.

Loyalty & RewardsReferralsAdvocacy
Nosto
Product Discovery

Product discovery and personalized experiences — helping shoppers find the right products faster, and making every visit feel relevant.

Email, SMS and lifecycle activation — showing up with the right message at the right moment, automatically and at scale.

Measurement Infrastructure

Server-side tracking and measurement infrastructure — so every decision in the room is backed by data operators can actually trust.

The Proposal

A proposal for Growave, Nosto,
Klaviyo and Stape.

We're proposing a shared 2027 programme: one online event in January on AI in e-commerce, followed by a series of live events in the UK. Each partner brings a distinct area of expertise. Merchants bring the questions, experience and lessons that make the sessions worth attending.

Together, we can create useful conversations and a stronger operator community — one where merchants lead the sessions and partners contribute expertise without turning events into product demos or sales pitches.

Proposed, not agreed — we're opening the conversation
Topics & speakers
Help shape the themes each event goes deep on — and the operators who anchor them.
Event promotion
Reach the right merchants through the channels each partner already owns.
Merchant invitations
Curate the room together — inviting operators who will contribute, not just attend.
Format & locations
Shape the format and locations of the UK live-event series as a group.
