11th Annual European Supply Chain & Logistics Summit

The European Supply Chain and Logistics Summit (SCL Europe 2009) is the conference and networking event that delivers answers to the time-critical questions impacting your supply chain and logistics processes across Europe and beyond.

Now in its 11th year, this three day conference begins with a special focus day that explores the most prominent issues in supply chain, logistics and risk management. This sets the scene for a further two days of keynote addresses, streamed industry sessions, interactive workshops and pre-arranged one-to-one meetings designed for you to take back the information critical to your business.

In conjunction with the summit on the 8th June, the world’s supply chain and logistics community will be rewarded for best practice at the annual Supply Chain Distinction Awards. The ceremony will reward the world’s foremost enterprises for unparalleled performance and celebrate supply chain excellence across vital disciplines including supply chain innovation, collaboration and social responsibility.

Programme highlights include:

• The importance of supply chains in a slowing global economy
• Minimising your supply chain carbon footprint: the sustainable supply chain
• Closing the skills gap: developing the future supply chain workforce
• Finding the next low cost market: responding to rising costs in China
• Defining the supply chain of the future and generating value for customers
• What is collaboration?  Do we need long-term relationships?
• Business Continuity Planning (BCP): disaster-proofing the supply chain
• The demand dilemma: is the Demand Driven Supply Network the answer?
