It’s that time of year again! The largest gathering of Supply Chain professionals in the US at the biggest conference of the year: the Gartner Supply Chain Symposium & Xpo 2023 in Orlando, Florida, May 8th thru 10th. Click here for more information.
If you have attended this show in the past, you will know that it is not a small investment of time and cost to take part (as either an exhibitor or a conference attendee). Both registration and exhibition fees are significant and you need to allocate your full time and attention to preparation, planning and attending. However, compared to all other similar shows, I will argue that this investment is absolutely worth it.
You will simply not find any other event that covers so many critical topics, analysis and information related to Supply Chain. It has become a self-fulfilling prophecy: the caliber of attendees drives the quality of the information, and the quality of information attracts more industry experts and professionals. However, it still manages to remain on-point and relevant compared to “mega-shows”; this is the secret sauce for this event.
The word “Xpo” in the title is a key part for DELMIA and you will again find us on the exhibition floor, providing our own unique viewpoints and experience to the conversation. Visit us at Booth #128. I am also fortunate to be able to speak to some of the attendees at our theater session on Wednesday at 12:30pm at Stage 1 where we will be discussing some of the evolutionary steps in supply chain maturity and the importance of connecting upstream and downstream operations to planning.
The DELMIA team is available for 1-1 meetings where we can show you the latest technologies. Schedule time with us.
Now, you are either already packing your bags or have had to put off the decision to attend this year. Given the continued global disruption and tremendous innovation opportunities, I hope it is the former. If not, make sure you look at feedback and reviews and start building your business case for attendance in the future, as we would love to see you there!
