Does the supply chain space need another  conference? There are far too many today. Most follow a format of  sponsors, paid speaking and booths. The same content gets hashed again  over and over. In this podcast, Lora makes an argument for the need for a  different kind of conference. One where business and technology leaders  roll-up their sleeves together and imagine the supply chain of the  future together. With 95% of the industry stuck at the intersection of  cost, customer service and inventory, Lora thinks that it is important  to challenge the status quo. So if you are planning to go to industry  events which often focus on functional excellence of source, make and  deliver, consider stepping up to the plate to Imagine Supply Chain 2030  in an event designed for extreme networking of supply chain innovators.  This year’s event is in Chicago on September 3rd-6th.
