Patti also conceptualized and implemented The WIT-Walmart Women's Empowerment Initiative, an ongoing program where more than 500 women-owned-businesses have pitched their products to Walmart buyers, resulting in dozens of Walmart.com or in-store Walmart listings. In addition to being Chairman of the WIT Advisory Board, Patti has been a Consultant for the Toy Industry Association, and was a member of the LIMA Judges Panel for almost a decade. Keynote Speaking Engagements include: Nuremberg Toy Fair; Walmart-WIT Empowerment Program, recently with Mark Cuban; KidScreen Summit; TIA Annual Meetings; and numerous global WIT events.
