Disruption and Innovation in Logistics and Supply Chain

Описание: Innovation and Disruption in Logistics and Supply Chain
Presented to the Innovation Global Network
by David Simpson, Principal, MorristownThree

From the food on your table to the chemicals in your swimming pool to your child’s pajamas, everything we consume (and dispose of) is dependent on logistics and the supply chain. And, it’s been that way since commerce began.

Industry-wide, however, investment in technology has traditionally ranked very low.

The “Amazon Effect” is a significant driver of change. Consumers - and thus the companies that service them with their goods - expect a frictionless experience; ordering, tracking and receiving their purchases. New entrants leveraging emerging technologies - blockchain, IoT, big data, machine learning and AI - are innovating and disrupting the traditional landscape.

This presentation offers a snapshot of some of the emerging trends, thought leaders and game-changers in the space.
