Each round table group will offer suggestions to discuss sub-topics within the main theme of shop layout and work-flows. The group decides which sub-topics within the theme get discussed first and proceed to brainstorm that aspects, moving to the next, etc. The Facilitator keeps things moving and private side conversations are discouraged to keep the group on track. Highlights will be recorded and after the Summit, outlines from all groups will be compiled and published on the CIA website.
