Modernizing the Lottery at Retail: Retail is reinventing itself for the modern consumer.  CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods) companies are helping them do it, and we can’t expect them to look out for our interests.  Lottery needs to take the leadership role in this paradigm shift that will end up re-positioning the way products and services are sold at retail.  Too, "convenience" has become the modern consumers' priority.  That that will give rise to a new generation of 21st century convenience stores which should represent an opportunity for Lottery.  How can Lottery apply digital technology to enhance the player experience, how can Lottery create more co-promotions to help retailers achieve their own goals to sell more and drive store-traffic, and how can Lottery otherwise align with the modernization of the retail shopping experience?
