The breakout star of the 2017 CAAR Conference is back!

The Innovation Showdown
Wednesday, February 14, 11:15 a.m. – 12 p.m.

That’s right ladies and gentlemen – the one and only Innovation Showdown is returning to the 2018 CAAR Conference! Get ready for a wildly entertaining experience as 10 exhibitors present their best pitch and try to wow the audience in just two minutes.

This can’t-miss, game show-style event isn’t your average sales pitch; the sky’s the limit and the more creative the presentation, the better! From comedy sketches, to engaging trivia questions, to air horns and musical instruments, you never know what you’re going to see and hear at the Innovation Showdown.

If you’re an exhibitor and want to stand out at the CAAR Conference, the Innovation Showdown is the place to do it. With uninterrupted stage time in front of over 300 retail attendees, there’s no better place to reach your audience and promote your latest and greatest products and services. Just remember to make it quick – the clock is ticking!

Be sure to sign up early: the bar was set high last year, and we expect a full presenter lineup. Secure your spot, win over the crowd – and their votes – and you could be declared the winner! The winning presenter will receive a commemorative plaque, bragging rights and a title to defend in 2019.
