TOPIC: AI-DRIVEN SUPPLY CHAIN ANALYTICS

In this presentation we will discuss how AI is reshaping and revolutionizing supply chain analytics. We will dig deeper into current trends and future outlook of AI-driven supply chain analytics. The talk will also analyze some recent use cases and ongoing projects. Some of the key takeaways would include how to utilize emerging technologies such as Generative AI to be ahead of the curve, what are dos and don’ts, and how to avoid blind spots.
