Event Outline:

A recent investigation by Accenture indicates that 85% of businesses have introduced or are going to introduce digital technology to transform their supply chains. To fully take advantage of these changes, businesses have to capitalize on the great potential of emerging technologies such as cloud computing, IoT, big data, cognitive science and AI to promote the further transformation of their delivery channels and build an ever-improving, end-to-end solution.

Our distinguished panel will discuss:

- What are the key questions and mega-trends of the New Retail Era, currently being defined by such companies
   as Amazon and Alibaba?
- What transformations are taking place in the Supply Chain Ecosystem?
- What are some of the key challenges of the Digital Supply Chain?
