Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are member-led groups organized around areas of interest. They offer a forum for peer-to-peer learning in a small group atmosphere. SIGs are a great way for convenience services professionals to connect with like-minded peers, discuss trending industry topics and share successes and challenges to help with business growth. All meetings are held virtually and are for NAMA members only.
