What is the D2C Summit?
The D2C Summit is the first edition of an e-commerce event created and organized by Nuvemshop, the leading platform for online sales solutions in Brazil and Latin America.
Its purpose is to empower entrepreneurs and brands of all sizes to take control of their businesses, gaining autonomy, ownership of their customer base, and direct communication with their audience.
The term D2C (direct to consumer) literally means “direct to the consumer” and represents a sales model where companies don’t rely exclusively on intermediaries such as marketplaces or distributors. This allows them to:
- Build direct relationships with their customers
- Control the shopping journey and customer experience
- Personalize communication and marketing strategies
- Increase repeat purchases and loyalty
- Strengthen brand perception
The event creates a space for learning, inspiration, and networking, bringing together both those taking their first steps in e-commerce and established companies already generating millions in revenue.
