Across the globe, the rule book is being torn up for supply chain and logistics planning, operations and the professionals tasked with marshalling the services, assets and people to deliver the goods. Automation and digitalisation are disrupting traditional business models, consumer expectations, supply chain, logistics and transport networks at an unprecedented pace and scale - and the speed of technology development will never be as slow as it is today.

The 21st edition of the Supply Chain & Logistics Summit will be addressing the disruptions taking place in the industry and will be held at the Hilton Antwerp in Belgium from 24-26 September. The Summit is a high-level event for Supply Chain professionals to meet, exchange ideas and contribute to the debate. The sessions are designed to provide delegates with real-life scenarios of achievements, challenges and how the implementation of technology can achieve competitive advantage.
