Special Guest Speaker, Ms. Jamie Peltz
Topic:  Idea to Impact: Unlocking the Secret of Successful Innovation

Jamie Peltz is a visionary problem solver who turns everyday challenges into innovative solutions. When life handed her an unexpected curveball with unemployment, Jamie saw it as the perfect chance to dive into her true passion—entrepreneurship. But she wasn't just interested in building a business; she wanted to create a platform where others could thrive alongside her.

Driven by this mission, Jamie not only invented and patented groundbreaking products but also created opportunities for others. One of her standout creations, SureSwatch® Temporary Paint Swatches, was born out of her frustration with the traditional, paint selection process. Struggling to choose the right color for her children's rooms, she had an “aha” moment: what if there was a way to see the paint on a larger scale without committing to it? This led to the development of a paintable clear film with a low-tack adhesive, making the trial process easy and non-committal. Jamie set her sights high and vowed to get SureSwatch on the shelves of The Home Depot—and she did just that, proving that persistence pays off. Today, SureSwatch is available in over 3,000 retail locations, helping millions find their perfect paint color.
