For instance, attendees can book an appointment to talk with a subject matter expert like Harold Lloyd who can share practical employee retention techniques used by top retailers that will help stem the loss of employees to competitors. Or Bruce Kimbrell who can share Disney cast knowledge and best practices that can help create emotional connections with customers that lead to greater sales and more memorable, immersive experiences. Or meet with top experts to understand soon-to-be enforced FDA’s menu calorie labeling requirements.

With over 20 experts available, you’ll get 25 minutes to discuss a business issue that keeps you up at night. Take your business to the next level with this new opportunity during IDDBA 17. Appointments can be booked at the show starting Saturday, June 3.
