This annual event has a goal of bringing industry executives, consultants, academicians and university students together to learn about the growing opportunities and challenges in the global marketplace. This year’s theme, Innovation Generation will focus on how increased competitive demands in innovation will require sustainable strategies to get and stay ahead of the competition. The Terry J. Lundgren Center for Retailing’s Corporate Advisory Board partners provide strategic direction and support for the Center’s programs and activities.
