PORTLAND, OR (PRWEB.com, Digital Journal)
The Gift Card Network Education Committee announces the Second Gift Card Network Regional Summit, hosted by Givex and Powerhouse Brands Consulting, in Toronto, CAN on November 5th, 2013. Thank you to our addition sponsors: Arjowiggins, Buyatab, Gift Fly and Travel Tags.
GCN members will be engaging in gift card education and networking, ending with a collaborative workshop that will generate a dynamic gift card strategic plan for a merchant case study. Utilizing the many perspectives of the vendors, distributors, and merchants planned to be in attendance, the group's resulting presentations will be crafted into a content piece that all GCN members can find inspiration from.
Education Committee chairs Travel Tags and Powerhouse Brands Consulting are heading up the event, inviting companies in the gift card industry in Canada and the US to attend and experience the Gift Card Network experience.
"The summit is a reflection of the network - it creates an environment where buyers and sellers are collaborating around a unified goal - to create a fantastic consumer gifting experience and learn how to leverage each other better," said Matt Davies, Gift Card Network Director.
Education Committee Chair Martha Weaver from Travel Tags said, "Our first event was an enormous success. The collaborative atmosphere of the Gift Card Network drives trust and relationships across industry perspectives."
