Elemica Annual European inSIGHT Conference Delivers Business Critical Information Enabling More Market-Driven Supply Chains

EXTON, PA--(Marketwired - Jul 9, 2013) - Elemica, the leading Supply Chain Operating Network provider for the process industries, announces its upcoming European Supply Chain Conference, inSIGHT 2013, to be held in the greater Frankfurt area on October 10, 2013. The inSIGHT 2013 conference will bring together business leaders and influential innovators, who will deliver presentations equipping attendees to create a more powerful market-driven supply chain vision for their companies. Presenters will also introduce exciting new technologies now available that speed the transformation of their market-driven vision into an outside-in reality.

"Companies who embrace and enable market-driven supply chains are better positioned for sustained success in this global and increasingly volatile market," said Juan-Carlos Mani, Vice President of Sales in Europe for Elemica. "The connection of traditional inside-the-wall supply chain enterprise planning processes to a holistic, value-driven and outside-in supply chain approach is a journey process industry companies must take to unlock new and lasting business value. Attendees will learn how to create a disruptive competitive edge for their organizations, and how to start a rewarding and successful journey which allows them to cut through the complexity of the extended supply chain."

The agenda includes presentations from process industry executives and supply chain thought leaders on creating high performance value networks designed to meet the demands of today's challenging global marketplace. The inSIGHT 2013 conference will also highlight the real value of expansive trading partner discovery, rapid on-boarding campaign capabilities, and robust B2B social collaboration. Breakout sessions on IT and technology trends, Customer Management, Logistics Management, Supplier Management, and Sourcing Management will be interspersed throughout the day to provide attendees with updates on relevant industry issues and best practices. Attendees scheduling 'Pros to Know' sessions can benefit from 1-on-1 meetings with an Elemica supply chain expert. The sessions are a forum for individual conference participants to ask any pressing supply chain or sourcing questions that they may have. 

Breakfast and lunch will be served. A cocktail reception immediately follows the conference on October 10th, and a pre-conference dinner during the evening of October 9th, provide for relaxed atmospheres where attendees can network with their peers. The inSIGHT 2013 conference will be held at Dorint Pallas Hotel, Auguste-Viktoria-Straße 15, 65185 Wiesbaden, Germany. To register, visit http://www.elemica.com/events/conference-registration/.
