When: 12 September 2022 19:30 - 20:30Where: Zoom WebinarSpeaker: Amy Shortman – (she/her) Vice President of Product Marketing at Overhall
Amy will discuss the need to adopt digital technology and employ digital thinking in the supply chains of today and tomorrow. She will demonstrate this with real-use cases where technology has caught cargo thieve in the act, ensured life-saving cancer treatments reach patients in time and helped Operations managers sleep at night. Despite juggling the demands of nurturing a young family and running a company that has been a significant part of the pandemic vaccination efforts over the past two years, it is fantastic that Amy has found some time to share her experiences with us (fortunately, we are flexible enough to run our event at a suitable time to deconflict with both family and business demands!).Booking for Members - FREEClick 'Book now' online to book, if you have any difficulties email us at regions@ciltuk.org.uk quoting event code: TVG0420Booking for Non-Members - £5.00 inc.
