While discussing the fashion/retail industry, speakers will provide tips and guidance on how to make one's place in the business of retail. Following the seminar, Mississippi State's Student Chapter of the National Retail Federation Student Association is sponsoring a networking event with local business owners and managers at the hotel's Beer Garden.
