Call for speakers at Outdoor University
08/03/2013
Sessions are aimed at retailers, distributors, sales reps, manufacturers and importers focused on selling products related to outdoor recreation and lifestyle. Past sessions have covered topics such as retail operations, product design, business and consumer trends, e-commerce, retail technology, technology shifts, visual merchandising, social media, retail sales strategies, retail business solutions, sustainability, business growth strategies, new business models, consumer trends, strategic brand marketing and more.
Speakers must provide “compelling, timely and relevant content”, the organisers say, and agree to allow Outdoor University and the OIA to record the presentation and add it to the Outdoor University library. They must also have the ability to engage an audience of between 35 and 150 people for up to 90 minutes and they must refrain from content aimed at selling any product or service during the session.
OIA has set up a special area on its website (www.outdoorindustry.org) for prospective speakers to submit their proposals. The submission deadline is March 30.
