The announcement of Shoptalk Supply Chain Meetup follows the successful conclusion of the second edition of Shoptalk Fall Meetup, which brought together 2,000 executives from North America and Europe for more than 10,000 online meetings. Shoptalk's signature Meetups bring large, curated groups together for double opt-in virtual meetings and peer group discussions. The Meetups have successfully facilitated more than 43,000 online meetings for more than 6,000 participants in the past year.

"Our Meetups have achieved unprecedented success over the past year and achieved more than 90% satisfaction rate for meetings. Participants have told us they want to continue to connect post-pandemic and year-round with these efficient, cost-effective formats, which is why we're making them part of our permanent lineup of events," said Katie Dominesey, vice president, commercial, at Shoptalk.
