RSPA Committees

Committees are the lifeline between RSPA and our members. It’s a way for members to get involved, share their expertise, and help to make the association even stronger. It’s a fantastic way to have your voice heard and make a difference in the evolution of the retail technology industry.

We encourage all members to review the active committee list below, find one that interests you, and email Membership@GoRSPA.org to get involved.

• Canadian: Responsible for identifying new members in the Canadian market and assisting with annual Community networking events (one in-country).
• Education: This committee serves as the advisory board for the RSPA by providing recommendations on content and assisting with the execution of industry education for members. Included in this has been support with content and breakout sessions for both Inspire and RetailNOW.
• Membership: Responsible for helping to grow and retain RSPA membership. This committee also assists in outreach to other organizations to encourage membership and engagement.
• Marketing: This committee helps raise awareness of the RSPA brand and image, as well as works closely with the RSPA team on creating and branding campaigns and initiatives.
• NextGEN: We are working to build a community of RSPA members that will help the industry evolve and continue to flourish. Those that are creating and offering new solutions as well as those that will take ownership as the previous generation begins to transition who are at any level of their organization (executive, sr management, management, entry level, etc). You don’t have to be a leader today to help guide the RSPA for tomorrow.
• Strategic Technology Solutions (STS): The STS committee works to identify emerging technologies that may be of benefit/interest to RSPA members and/or their customers. The committee also provides an article published in each issue of connect magazine.
• W2W – Women In Retail: The W2W Committee works to unite, lift and empower women in technology by providing educational opportunities and peer to peer collaboration in a supportive environment.
