STRATEGIC PARTNER

This session presents the effect of the interaction of innovation with supply chain management in competitive and cooperative settings. We will analyze the design of innovative supply chain strategies that provide firms with a strategic and sustainable competitive advantage that utilize global resources and markets.

During the last decade, businesses have undergone a structural revolution.  Industries have been globalized both in terms of sourcing and distribution.  This new environment raises enormous challenges, not only within firms, but also between firms.  To successfully survive, one needs to innovate constantly and coordinate the rate of product, process and supply chain innovation.  These abilities have created success in the long term at a number of firms, while others have struggled to adjust their practices. We will provide a context to learn about the logic of coordinating innovation and supply chain management globally in this session.

So come and join us for an evening of insightful discussion and networking.
