Tabletalks

Informal Peer-to-Peer Conversations on Hot Topics, over Lunch or Breakfast
 

Tabletalks are unmoderated, off-the-record, peer-to-peer conversations designed to build connections while you share advice and insights with your peers. We’ll supply lunch, you’ll discuss common challenges, hear how others have solved similar problems, and learn from and lean into your peers.

These 50-minute, interactive discussions are exclusively for attendees from retailers and consumer brands. Our tech platform matches small groups interested in a specific, pre-set topic, for an open, honest dialogue. You’ll exchange ideas, compare approaches, and build meaningful relationships, walking away with practical insights you can take back to your business.

Participation in Tabletalks is FREE with your Shoptalk Fall ticket.
