SUPPLY CHAIN STRATEGIES

The last few years have seen tremendous changes to how supply chains around the world operate, driven by ongoing volatility, climate disruption and tariff threats. Supply chain executives gathered in London for Supply Chain LIVE, a two-day event taking place alongside Procurement LIVE, Manufacturing LIVE and Sustainability LIVE at the QEII Centre, tackling the main challenges and most innovative solutions.

Leaders took to the Supply Chain Stage to discuss the role of AI in the supply chain, the growing influence of sustainability targets and emergin resilience strategies.
Attendees heard keynote speeches delivered by Kim Faulkner from Tate & Lyle, Alexander Tschentscher of Siemens, Aurelien Faucheux from Bugatti Rimac, Maiya Shibasaki from Hitachi Rail, Stephen Carter of Ivalua and Steffen Lang from Novartis. With 2,500 attendees, Supply Chain LIVE was the perfect place for leaders to network, with four floors open to executives across procurement, sustainability and manufacturing.
The two-day event helped spark new conversations, offered key insights into innovative ways of thinking and helped motivate leaders to transform their supply chain operations.
