Thank you for your interest in the Vendor & Retail Partners Summit. Due to the prolonged government shutdown and other unforeseen obstacles, NWA is postponing the summit and integrating it into the 2019 Biennial NWA WIC Technology, Program Integrity, and Vendor Management Education & Networking Conference and Exhibits in Oklahoma City in September 17-19, 2019.
As a precursor to the 2019 Biennial NWA WIC Technology, Program Integrity, and Vendor Management Education & Networking Conference and Exhibits, NWA will host a Vendor Partners Roundtable on Wednesday, March 6th, from 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. This event, which will be complimentary, will be held at the Intercontinental Hotel at the Wharf in Washington, DC. We hope that this roundtable discussion between WIC vendor management staff, EBT vendors, and business partners is a constructive step in improving the WIC shopping and participant experience. The roundtable on March 6th will also be a precursor event to broader discussions about the WIC shopping experience at the September 2019 conference.
To request a spot at the March 6th roundtable, please click here. Seating is limited.
