GDS International to Reveal Cutting Edge Solutions at its Fourth NG Supply Chain Australia Summit

Feb. 26, 2013 - PRLog -- This event will take place on the 30th of April to the 2nd of May 2013 at the five-star Shangri-La Hotel in Cairns. Having previously run three successful NG Supply Chain summits in Australia, this year’s event also promises to be invaluable, with attendees discussing a range of cutting edge topics, including: talent management, next generation leadership and the changing workforce, supply chain and innovation. Delegates will also be looking at broader issues, including supply chain capability and the chain of responsibility.

Mark Robinson, National Logistics Manager for Reliance Petroleum, was an attendee at the event last year. He said: “What makes the summit stand out for me is the quality of the presentations. The seminars were of fantastic value. There was a lot of great information coming from like-minded people from across the industry, and the quality of the attendees was also at a really fantastic level.”

Attending NG Supply Chain Australia this year will be: David Whytcross, GM Logistics & Fulfilment for Fosters; Bernardo Machado, Director Supply Chain Services ANZ for Reckitt Benkiser; David Hix, Director Supply Chain for Nestle; Ian Palliser, MD Group Optimisation & Supply Chain for Fonterra; and Joe Vurchio, Supply Chain Director for Johnson and Johnson.
