Foodies love parades. They love the excitement, the noise, the fun, and the crowds of people. Our business is like a float in a parade. Some are happy "watching the parade as it passes by," some want to help build the floats, and some want to get out in front and lead the parade.

Carol Christison, executive director of IDDBA, seeks out new ideas, watches consumer buying behavior, and analyzes industry trends to identify the issues that are changing our business. She'll make you laugh, she'll make you think, and she'll make you want to put what you've learned into action. Get a front row seat for this innovative, sometimes startling, entertaining presentation of best-in-class ideas, trends, and products.
