COVID-19 has made for a bumpy ride, but it has also accelerated changes in business and supply chains. 85% of senior supply chain executives are reporting an increased priority on implementing a “modern control tower,” determined on building greater adaptability and resiliency.

He’ll be joined by Jeanette Barlow, Vice President – Offering Management, IBM Sterling, who will provide insight into the innovative ways that supply chains are being transformed via application of AI and control towers.
