Looking Back to Keep Moving Forward: A Key Year for Flame Analytics
The close of 2025 marks a turning point for Flame Analytics. It has been a year of consolidation, learning, and evolution, in which we have strengthened our position as a key player in the transformation of physical spaces through data. Looking back is not just an exercise in reflection, but a way to acknowledge the path traveled so we can face the challenges of 2026 with greater strength.
As the year comes to an end, we would like to take this opportunity to wish all our clients, partners, and collaborators a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, and to thank them for their trust and continued support. In a context where retail, shopping centers, airports, and urban spaces are undergoing constant transformation, data has become the primary source of insight for strategic decision-making. At Flame Analytics, we have continued working to ensure that this data is reliable, actionable, and business-oriented.
International Presence and Connection with the Retail Ecosystem
2025 has been a particularly significant year in terms of visibility and engagement with the global retail and physical spaces ecosystem.
Our participation in NRF 2025 in New York once again placed us at the heart of industry innovation. Being present at the world’s leading retail event allowed us to share our vision with international leaders, gain first-hand insight into where the industry is heading, and reinforce our message: the future of retail is physical, digital, and above all, data-driven.
Throughout the year, we have also taken part in other key industry events, fostering meaningful conversations with partners, clients, and professionals who share a common goal: gaining a deeper understanding of consumers and optimizing physical spaces from a strategic perspective.
Flame Talks: Creating Conversation, Knowledge, and Community
One of the most important milestones of 2025 was the celebration of the 4th edition of Flame Talks. This event has established itself as a space for reflection and dialogue, where data, customer experience, and innovation take center stage.
Flame Talks is not just an event—it’s a community. A community of professionals who understand that today’s industry challenges cannot be solved with isolated solutions, but through vision, collaboration, and deep analysis. In this fourth edition, we once again brought together experts from retail, shopping centers, mobility, and technology to share real insights, use cases, and trends that are already shaping the present and future of the industry.
MAPIC 2025
Our participation in MAPIC Cannes 2025 reaffirmed Flame Analytics’ role as a strategic partner for the commercial real estate and retail sectors. In an environment where space optimization, brand attraction, and visitor experience are key, data becomes the common language connecting all stakeholders.
MAPIC once again demonstrated that intuition-based decisions are no longer enough. Advanced analytics, behavior measurement, and the ability to anticipate trends are now essential elements to ensure the profitability and sustainability of physical assets.
Acknowledging the Journey and Those Who Make It Possible
We want to thank all the people who have recently joined the Flame Analytics team, bringing enthusiasm, passion, and dedication from day one. Their energy, commitment, and fresh perspective are today a fundamental pillar for continuing to grow and tackling the new challenges ahead. Likewise, we want to acknowledge those who are no longer part of the team but have left an indelible mark on our history—people who helped build Flame through their work, dedication, and belief in the project.
On this journey, Carlos Gómez and Lucía González hold a very special place: their contributions were key at decisive moments, and their legacy continues to shape how we understand who we are and where we are headed. Because projects that endure are not built solely with technology or data, but with people, values, and a shared vision that transcends time.
2026: New Challenges, New Actions, Same Essence
Looking ahead to 2026, the challenge is clear: to continue evolving at the pace the market demands without losing our essence. Physical spaces will keep transforming, consumers will become increasingly demanding, and businesses will need more precise, contextualized, and actionable information.
At Flame Analytics, we approach the new year with a roadmap focused on:
Continuous evolution of our analytical solutions
Greater integration of physical and digital data
New initiatives for strategic support to our clients
Active presence at the leading industry events
Generation of valuable content and knowledge for the sector
We will continue strengthening our presence at national and international fairs and conferences, fostering our own spaces for reflection, and collaborating with partners who share our vision.
Data as a Fundamental Pillar for Today’s and Tomorrow’s Businesses
If there is one thing that defines the direction of Flame Analytics, it is a firm conviction: data is the primary source of insight for businesses. Not as an end in itself, but as a tool to understand, decide, and transform.
Retailers, shopping center operators, airports, urban spaces, and brands now more than ever need to understand what is happening in their physical spaces, how people behave, and the impact of their decisions. Along this path, Flame Analytics will continue to be a fundamental pillar, providing clarity in an increasingly complex environment.
As we enter 2026, we do so with ambition, responsibility, and the certainty that the future is built on data, people, and long-term vision. From all of us at Flame Analytics, we wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
