1. Can you introduce yourself and tell us about
2. Your company
3. The problem you are solving
4. The “pigeonhole” question:  Where does your solution sit
5. Where are we in the adoption cycle for this technology?
6. What is the message you’re sharing at NRF?

For all the college students out there
