It has taken me a full week to think about how to summarize my time at the The Consumer Goods Forum #GlobalSummit but in short, it will definitely feature in the lookback reel of my "top 2024 moments": From hosting customers at the Amazon Go stores and sharing our innovations around #frictionless Store Experiences with Just Walk Out technology and Amazon One, and hearing Justin Honaman share our POV on the evolving role of #AI, #data and #analytics alongside SMEs like Deepak Jose and Ruediger Hagedorn ... .. to participating in formative discussions on how the CG industry will come together, and in partnership with #retailers to improve the communities we all serve across 9 coalitions of action (particularly joining the #HumanRights SteerCo, and diving in to Circularity with Deborah Dull) ... ... to unfiltered conversations about combating self-doubt and building resilience with Former First Lady #MichelleObama as well as tackling gender and generational biases in the workplace with Mondelēz International, Wegmans Food Markets and Ahold Delhaize ... ... to making local connections and coming together to grow and nurture our Food & Beverage businesses with the support of Chicago's mayor, Brandon Johnson and World Business Chicago ... ... to really enjoying some let-your-hair-down moments including printing personalized #Toblerone bars for the boys, getting to know industry leaders over dinner conversations, walking down a red carpet, watching bits of Chicago The Musical, being serenaded by #GloriaGaynor, and savoring a meal prepared by Richard Blais thanks to L'Oréal and SC Johnson. Here's to growing, learning and showing up to discuss our industry's concrete steps forward by #CGF 2025 in Amsterdam! Amazon Web Services (AWS), AWS for Retail and Consumer Goods

Looking forward to trying out this new sunscreen from babyganics over the summer Renata Ferraiolo, thank you! P.S. I can't help but wonder if you specifically worked in that tortoise at the bottom of the box with marketing...
