SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKERS
Innovator, product launcher, ideas man
Name to be revealed soon
A true one of a kind - you'll hear the amazing story of a writer, product launcher, defier of the norms. He's the King of NPD - what flew off the shelves? What didn't? And had he anticipated it?
Our special guest speaker will give a tour of his (often unexpected) successes and major failures. A master of self publicity, he has hit the headlines, created cult best sellers and captured the zeitgeist with his unusual product launches.
Inspiring, amazing, and hilarious too. A talk you won't want to miss.
Investigative psychologist
Name to be revealed soon
Our guest speaker is a renowned expert on profiling. In this session we'll learn more about what influences our actions and our character. A chance to dive deeper into motivation, criminal profiling, and character - discovering our hidden personal narratives. You'll learn more about what shapes a criminal mind, how investigators profile, and conversely, our propensity to kindness.
What can we categorise about human behaviour and traits, and how should we think about kindness?

WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT OUR MEETINGS
“Thanks again for inviting me, it was great attending to meet colleagues from other industries and to chat about common challenges. Will definitely join next time and would maybe bring my logistic colleagues…liked the setting with small groups & round tables, great program as well location and catering.”
CM, Campari Group
“Am so pleased I managed to finally make one of your events. I found it really useful, and refreshingly different from other ones I’ve attended. I liked the roundtable style – interesting, beneficial, allowed for more brainstorming and gave much greater food for thought to take back to our day to day businesses. Excellent, engaging, entertaining speakers and subjects that help break up the ‘supply chain’ element of the day but give you more strategic business perspective considerations.
NM, Zonal
"Thank you very much for hosting a great session last week. A really great opportunity to have some round table discussions on topics front of mind, to get different perspectives and hear experience of deploying different technologies. The guest speakers were excellent too, good to break the day up with some completely different topics."
