Retail in India has been at the cusp of huge investments and growth plans; now it is important that these are adequately supported by process robustness and innovation. Sustainability of growth and profitability in these turbulent times is no longer a matter of just getting the strategy right, but more and more of ensuring that the strategy is rightly implemented. In continuation of Technopak's tradition of sharing best practices and processes, we are pleased to announce the Technopak Workshops Series (TWS) - Retail & Consumer Products 2009. TWS is targeted at the Senior and Middle management people and aims to provide micro level insights on the key issues pertaining to Supply Chain Management, Retail Merchandising, Store Operations, HR, Branding and Consumer trends. Technopak has over the last one decade conducted various industry workshops covering over a thousand participants. Initially these workshops were a part of Technopak's leadership forums including Marketing & Retail Conclave, International Textile and Apparel Congress etc. However, given the exceptional response to these workshops, Technopak has decided to unbundle the same from the leadership forums and conduct these in multiple cities, thus making it more convenient for industry professionals to participate. Technopak Retail Workshops are scheduled to happen in Delhi and Bangalore in August and in Mumbai in September 2009. It will be a one day event at each location with some of the most influential/reputed Brands (including FMCG, CDIT) and Retailers participating as speakers or as delegates. 9 workshops are planned for the event, each of 2.5 hour duration. A delegate can choose any 4. Each delegate will get a seat reserved in 3 out of the 4 workshops he has opted for, in order of his preference and based on first come first serve basis, as each workshop will have limited seats. Each of these workshops will be conducted by an industry expert along with a Technopak Consultant, and will be extremely interactive in nature. Each topic will be discussed using case studies and relevant industry examples. Technopak will only take about 15-20 people per workshop to make it most effective and to maximize interaction between the participants and the experts.
