The Global Destination for Supply Chain Leaders

The Digital Supply Chain Institute (DSCI) of the Center for Global Enterprise is pleased to announce the 11th Executive Leadership Forum on November 13-15 at the Museum of the Future in Dubai, UAE. We are proud to be collaborating with DP World on this event. This by-invitation-only event will bring together no more than 100 supply chain leaders from around the world. The theme for the Forum is “Bringing Tomorrow’s Supply Chain to Today.”

The goal will be to share the knowledge and experiences of supply chain practitioners and facilitate practical discussions about the transformative actions necessary to capture the benefits and mitigate the risk of supply chain management in a segmented global economy.

The Forum will illustrate the evolution of supply chain transformation, the role of technology, data, talent, and the importance of cybersecurity in an economy being reshaped by geo-political and geo-economic forces. Renowned business leaders will share their experiences and insights, and attendees will be able to identify new supply chain strategies and tools and engage with a global community of supply chain owners and decision-makers.

Who Should Attend?

Supply chain leaders, C-level executives, directors, and executive managers from enterprise cross-functional departments.
The forum is specially designed so that multi-functional teams of senior management (e.g., supply chain, shipping and logistics, sales, marketing, IT, Finance, and HR) can analyze the opportunities and challenges of digital transformation.
Leading-edge transformation requires a cross-company commitment and effort.
