The Shopify Winter Edition 2026 has arrived and this release is materially different from prior Editions. Rather than shipping isolated features, Shopify is clearly advancing a broader ambition: evolving from a commerce platform into a connected commerce network powered by native AI, distribution, and developer acceleration.
For agencies such as Webtmize operating at the intersection of ecommerce strategy, marketing execution, and technical delivery, this Edition introduces meaningful opportunities and new expectations from merchants across DTC, B2B, and enterprise segments.

On June 11, 2025, I had the opportunity to attend the Agency Leadership Circle with Google Canada, a gathering that brought together thought leaders from across the industry to reflect on the accelerating role of AI, not just as Artificial Intelligence, but as what Google was calling as Agency Intelligence at the event.

In a move that reinforces our commitment to delivering best-in-class ecommerce performance solutions, Webtmize is proud to announce an exclusive North American partnership with Highstreet.io — a trusted European leader in feed management technology.

This collaboration unlocks a powerful new offering for e-commerce brands in the U.S. and Canada, giving them access to enterprise-grade product feed management solutions fully integrated and supported by the Webtmize team. Whether you're advertising on Google Shopping, scaling your Meta campaigns, or syndicating products across marketplaces, this partnership puts unparalleled precision and automation within reach.
