CEO Message
As GS1 Australia celebrates its 30th year as Australia’s leading supply chain organisation, we are proud to present Impetus 2008. There has never been a more exciting time to be championing supply chain excellence as new technologies empower supply chain professionals enabling them to deliver real business benefits.
Insight, innovation and implementation are the driving force behind this year’s Impetus conference as we look at cutting-edge supply chain strategies and global, best-practice supply chain management. The Impetus program will run over two days offering an impressive line-up of keynote speakers. Representatives of a diverse range of Australian businesses will share their hands-on experience in transforming their supply chains for greater efficiency and speed to market.
With GS1 Australia at Impetus 2008 you can discover how to improve your supply chain practices and achieve savings through a smarter supply chain using GS1 global standards. With this in mind we have a program that ranges across the many industry sectors in which GS1 Australia is working, as well as looking at global issues such as traceability and crisis planning in a pandemic.
I would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge and thank our Platinum Sponsors: IBM and Leadtec for their support and I encourage everyone to visit our sponsors at the Expo which runs concurrently with Impetus 2008. The free expo compliments the conference program and showcases supply chain solution providers.
This year we invite all delegates to the Impetus conference to join us in celebrating 30 successful years at a cocktail party at the end of Day One.
I look forward to seeing you at Impetus 2008.
