You already know and love our Executive Roundtables, and now we’re taking them to the next level by integrating the Spring Roundtables into MDM SHIFT: The Future of Distribution, May 13-15 in Denver. At no additional cost, you’ll experience the focused strategy sessions you rely on—plus broaden your opportunities to connect, collaborate, and innovate within the larger SHIFT event. 

What’s New? 

By weaving the Executive Roundtables into the fabric of SHIFT, you’ll still benefit from your trusted cohort sessions while tapping into the richer perspectives, resources, and networks this expanded environment provides. It’s the same format you appreciate, now powered by the greater energy and breadth of SHIFT. 

Why Attend? 

Because you deserve more: more dedicated content focused on your toughest business challenges, more fresh ideas from industry visionaries, and more ways to learn, grow, and thrive within the wholesale distribution ecosystem. 

Key Experiences and Takeaways: 

  • Conquer Real-World Challenges: Develop actionable strategies to ignite growth and profitability. 
  • Engage with Industry Leaders: Enjoy small-group sessions that foster deep connections, now further enhanced by the dynamism of the entire SHIFT conference. 
  • Shape the Future of Distribution: Tap into cutting-edge insights and collaborations that drive meaningful industry transformation. 
  • Learn from the Best: Interact with top thought leaders, participate in hands-on, peer-to-peer exchanges, and gain powerful new perspectives. 
  • Expand Your Network: Move beyond your cohort to engage with the full conference’s roster of high-caliber attendees and sessions.
