“Technology has been a critical area of growth for the independent channel over the last several years, and it remains a key opportunity, ” says NHPA chief operating officer Dan Tratensek. “We are excited to offer an event that focuses on real-world technology solutions and will bring retailers and industry groups together to learn from each other how to navigate this space.”
The conference theme is “Putting Technology to Work for You” and will feature breakout educational sessions, industry-leading speakers and retailer panel discussions. The event will also play host to two popular NHPA programs, the Young Retailer of the Year Awards reception and the Top Guns Awards.
In addition to the education, conference sessions and networking opportunities, NHPA will also be inviting technology and service vendors to exhibit and meet with attendees.
