2021 SUPPLIER MANAGEMENT ONLINE SUMMIT
North America
Never before has an event such as the Covid-19 pandemic shone a light on the vulnerability of supply chains. Companies have been addressing lessons learned and working to make their supply chains more resilient and sustainable.
The North America summit will feature the results of our annual research and reveal the topics and trends that we believe will become a priority for supplier management programs going forward in 2022.
We will also hear from a panel of three large enterprise companies that are currently implementing their supplier management programs. Each of the companies on the panel are at different stages in their supplier management journey and will provide attendees the unique opportunity to view and understand how these stages complement each other throughout the journey. However, the one thing they all have in common is they are equally committed to creating and protecting the value of their businesses.
We look forward to welcoming you to State of Flux’s 13th Annual Supplier Management Summit on October 27, 2021.
