1 2018 CATEGORY MANAGEMENT & SHOPPER INSIGHTS CONFERENCE May 7th 9th, 2018 at the Gaylord Opryland Convention Center Nashville, Tennessee SPONSORSHIP GUIDE

2 Lorem ipsum About the 2018 Category Management & Shopper Insights Conference The CMA is pleased to announce that our 2018 host hotel for the Category Management & Shopper Insights conference will be the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville! Gaylord Opryland is one of the premier conference facilities in the country, centrally located with an extraordinary setting. The resort has outstanding meeting facilities, along with dining, shopping, and entertainment all under one roof. The 3-day event offers solution providers the opportunity to meet in-person with prospective customers and current clients. These meetings take place at your booth in the Solution Hall and at the IP breakout session, where you will be presenting your newest developments and offerings. In addition, the solution demo rotations, networking receptions & breaks (all held in the Solution Hall), provide further opportunity for solution providers to connect with attendees throughout the conference. I enjoyed the conference this year (again), and looking forward to Nashville. For me, the difference this year was having many new solution providers. What I liked was that these new solution providers were leveraging technology to drive more flexible options at a lower cost. - Boston Beer We go to the show to look for new ideas, new technologies, new partners. The show always exceeds our expectations and it keeps getting better every year. -Walgreens I was so impressed with the amazing collection of speakers, the execution at the event, and the extra events. It was probably one of the best shows that I ve attended. - Kantar Retail MEET & NETWORK with retailers & manufacturers within: SHOPPER INSIGHTS CATEGORY MANAGEMENT Consumer Insights Consumer Targeting CRM/Loyalty Media/Social Messaging Omni-Channel Promotion Shopper Marketing Advanced Analytics Assortment Optimization Merchandising Pricing Retail Execution Sales Efficiencies Space Management Store Planning Supply Chain Category Management CM Advanced Analytics Connected Shopper Digital E-Commerce SI Advanced Analytics The 2017 global conference drew record attendance and we expect to grow even larger.
