WHAT TO EXPECT
NAWR brings together presenters and speakers from every corner of the industry from top retailers, media, CEOs, experts, and trendsetters for presentations and speeches. The speakers and panels deliver actionable insights to an intimate group, resulting in robust discussion, debate, and dialogue. The two days of presentations include lunch, dinner, and breaks that allow important networking opportunities. In the end, participants leave with renewed energy and critical information they bring back to their storefronts and businesses and apply it to their day-to-day operations.
WHAT IS INCLUDED
Participants in the Summit and Wednesday BYOB Dinner have access to all panels and presentations, breakfast on both days, lunch on day one, and the BYOB dinner on day two.
THE WEDNESDAY BYOB DINNER
Now a tradition, the Wednesday BYOB dinner sees Summit attendees bring an array of wines of their choice to dinner. At the BYOB dinner, you are likely to see ancient bottles of wine, magnums, bottles of some of the most collectible wines in the world, new discoveries, and the attendees’ favorite wines—all meant to be shared. The wines tend to be passed from table to table as guests enjoy a sumptuous dinner. The BYOB dinner is always a highlight of the Summit.
