Welcome

Virtual Wine Tasting & Roundtable - Streamlining supply chains: What role is technology playing in overcoming supply chain disruption?

Sponsored by OpenText
Wednesday 1st December 2021, 17:00
Zoom

The evening will combine wine tasting with a professional sommelier and moderated discussion with senior industry peers of key topics in supply chain disruption including: resource shortages; the ongoing impact of Covid and Brexit; ESG and regulatory change; and, the role that technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain are set to play in supply chain transformation.

As new technologies and digital tools become ever more integrated into supply chains around the world, UK businesses cannot afford to miss the chance to ensure their systems are able to withstand continued disruption and drive efficiencies amid unprecedented cost and logistical pressures.

Join our wine tasting & roundtable to explore:

• Lessons learned: How have businesses overcome challenges relating to the pandemic, Brexit and the supply chain disruption of previous months?
  
  
• Technology rising: Has the pace of digital transformation changed in the past 18 months and what role has technology played in ensuring operational resilience through the disruption?
  
  
• Regulation and rulebooks: How have businesses adapted to the shift in regulatory requirements post-Brexit and how are they using new technologies to manage digitised documentation and supplier collaboration?
  
  
• Data-driven supply chains: How are businesses progressing with plans to digitise business systems and how important is data in ensuring supply chains are connected and creating efficiencies?
  
  
• ESG and supply chain transparency: How are organisations responding to consumer and regulatory pressure to open up supply chains, and what role can technology play in improving visibility, regulatory processes and ethical sourcing strategies?
  
  
• Fit for the future: How are organisations building operational resilience through supply chain transformation, and how is the risk landscape likely to change in the coming years?
