Supply Chain, Innovation, Technology 2019 (SCIT'19) is a first of its kind FREE global summit for the most obsessively enthusiastic supply chain executives, professionals, academics, entrepreneurs, and investors; convening the BUYERS & BUILDERS of innovations for future-ready global supply chains over two days in NYC.
The event is purposefully bringing BUYERS & BUILDERS of supply chain innovations together to talk about where software-enabled technologies can be applied to create new products to move global supply chain networks into the future given current and forecasted needs and demands.
The emphasis is on the future of supply chain, globally, across industries; What problems remain that need to be solved? What problems have now arisen that we did not anticipate even a decade ago? What is possible with software-enabled technologies? What is necessary? Why? How can intra-industry and inter-industry collaboration between buyers, between builders, and between buyers and builders help make this future a reality? Why is this an important topic, for individuals, for companies, and for countries?
SCIT'19 is produced by The Worldwide Supply Chain Federation (#TWSCF). The New York Supply Chain Meetup is the founding chapter of #TWSCF with a sister chapter launched in Charleston, SC, and other chapters in the process of forming in Vancouver, Athens, Singapore, Bangalore, and other cities.
