Description
Supply Chain Sunday brings together an afternoon of
speakers and panels, and this year the agenda adds a 20-minute Peer Exchange
where attendees turn what they've heard into shared insight. Attendees pair up
with their neighbor to discuss what stood out. Each pair submits its takeaway,
with both partners' names, through a QR code on screen, and a handful of pairs
also share their findings aloud with the room. Rethink Retail judges review
every submission and select the winning pair. Each partner receives a $500
travel gift card, for a $1,000 prize presented by you.
As Peer Exchange Prize Sponsor, your brand is in front
of the full room for the entire activity, on the page every participant uses to
submit, on stage when the prize is awarded, and on a live graphic-recording
mural an artist creates from the community's takeaways.
