Sophie and Anil answer these questions:

1) Anil, you founded Shoptalk 8 years ago. What was the market opportunity you saw for these events and what was the disruption that you brought to the industry that made them so indispensable to people in the retail CPG digital ecosystem?
2) Sophie, you recently joined Hyve Group as Global President of the Shoptalk and Groceryshop events. What is your professional experience and what most intrigued you about coming to lead such a successful franchise?
3) Anil, You’re currently serving as CEO of Personatech, the platform that allows Shoptalk and Groceryshop to manage its Meetings Programs. First, what is the idea behind these meetings programs and how does your platform operate to yield desired outcomes for all involved parties?
4) Sophie, The tech behind the traditional Hosted Hosted Retailers and Brands Meetings Program will also be powering the introduction of Meetups at Shoptalk this year. What’s your thinking with this addition to your upcoming event in Las Vegas?
