Zones & Experiences

In The Expo Experience

The Expo Experience is changing this year! We're bringing you four exploratory areas that are filled with experts, new ideas, and innovative technology. The hall will have a demo area, the Autonomous Zone, where we will showcase new autonomous technologies and solutions that are changing supply chains. There will be the Retail Innovation Center (RIC) Startup Showcase where startups within the supply chain industry will showcase their disruptive technologies alongside the LINK Live Stage featuring IN HALL content focused on innovation within the supply chain.

There will also be two experience centers! Each center revolves around the way you want to network, either casually in the LINK@PLAY or in a more professional manner in the LINK@WORK.  Either grab a drink and play some yard games while networking in the LINK@PLAY or pull up a presentation on you tablet and break into a deeper dive presentation with a retail prospect. You won't want to miss all the fun networking and learning activities happening in the Expo Experience!
