 If you can only attend one conference this year, why not choose the one where the Digital Retail Community connects? Find your reason for attending the Shop.org Annual Summit here.  | The Most Productive Networking In the Industry From the Opening Reception, to the Evening Event at LAX and 6 1/2 hours of networking time built into the agenda, there is ample opportunity for you to connect with colleagues and exchange not just hello’s, but meaningful conversation. |  | Keynote Insights from Leading Retailer Execs - Toby Lenk from Gap and George Jones from Borders Leading executives from the most successful digital retailers share their stories openly at the Annual Summit. Toby Lenk will dive deep into Gap, Inc’s new integrated shopping cart strategy, and George Jones will discuss how e-commerce is allowing Borders to reach new heights in customer service. |  | Sneak Peaks - Don Tapscott's New Book and fresh Profitability data by Sucharita Mulpuru Don Tapscott will give a preview of his new book, “Grown Up Digital,” the follow-up to the breakthrough “Growing Up Digital” published over 10 years ago. Audience favorite Sucharita Mulpuru from Forrester Research will also roll out the brand new Profitability Data from the SORO 2008 Research. |  | Strategy and Tactical Themed Concurrent Tracks For the first time, we’ve broken the concurrent sessions into “Strategy” and “Tactics” tracks, allowing us to approach the most important topics with specific functional responsibilities in mind. |  | "24+ Specific Things You Can Do To Make More Money Next Week”This is just one of a couple dozen different sessions at the Annual Summit. But if you’re looking for a single reason to attend, this may very well be it. In his inimitable style, Alan Dick moderates a panel of stars in this catalog of actionable tactics that will pay for the trip within a week of returning to your desk.* |  | Doctor is In One-on-One Web Critiques You’ll have access to the industry's experts. Luminaries. The world's leading authorities. In the Doctor is In we're giving you their undivided attention, one-on-one, as they help you tackle the biggest challenges you can throw at them. They make their living consulting with some of the world's most successful digital retailers, but they're not here to talk about themselves. They're here to talk about you. |  | Guided EXPO Hall Tours Powered by Fit For Commerce, you’ll enjoy an Analyst's Eye View of the Expo Hall. Each tour is hosted by a Fit For Commerce expert analyst and will stop at 10-12 booths, giving you an overview of each vendor’s services and relative strengths. And with 20+ tours to choose from, you’re sure to find one ideally targeted to your next partner search. |  | BIG !dea Sessions There’s a whole second conference happening within the EXPO Hall. These 30-minute sponsored sessions include product demos, research presentations and case studies, all designed to give you a deeper understanding of some of the solution providers you may be considering for a partnership. |  | Instant concept brainstorming with Roundtables immediately following Concurrent Sessions It’s a lot to ask for panelists and presenters to answer every conceivable question about their appointed topic while they’re on stage. So we don’t. Immediately following each concurrent session, in the very same room, we break into roundtables to vet what we just saw on stage, and apply it to each participant’s particular website or situation. And the speakers from the stage join into these intimate conversations as well, helping you turn concepts into action items. |  | Critics’ Corner Sessions Case studies are extremely valuable, but they’re not always representative of the landscape since they only include examples that worked really well. The Critics Corner Sessions are different. In each, a pair of experts analyzes and dissects websites, campaigns, tactics and the other levers that drive e-commerce, pointing out the warnings as well as the examples. If you think your website will earn a thumbs-up, you can volunteer it for a public screening as well. | *Results may vary.
