We're seeking great case studies - examples of what innovative approach you implemented, or what interesting approach you have to introduce to the community. Case studies should be brief, to the point and packed with data. 

Our goal is to provide our conference attendees with interactive learning experiences. We are seeking applications from industry and category experts with upscale presentation skills. Our speakers will be carefully selected to ensure a diversity of topics for diverse audiences. You must be able to deliver teaching points in a concise and engaging way. 

Each session will be 30-45 min. long - 5 minutes is allocated to sponsor remarks and speaker introduction, 15-25 min. for the presentation and 0-10 min. Q&A. Your topic should appeal to either women owned businesses, or corporate/government buyers, or other attendees from small business, corporate, government, or nonprofit environments. Keep in mind that the focus of our conference is on innovation and growth. Whether you will be focusing on business, marketing, sales or supply chains, we expect you to share novel ideas and approaches relevant to today’s business environment.
