2015 MHI Executive Summit & Annual Conference to focus on technologies transforming supply chains

When the 2015 MHI Executive Summit & Annual Conference comes to Florida in October, the top topic on everyone’s agenda will be the disruptive innovation that is transforming traditional supply chains into next generation models – and how to get ahead of the curve and turn this transformation into competitive advantage.

The content of this year’s event was developed to address innovations that were examined in the recently published MHI 2015 Annual Industry Report and US Roadmap for Material Handling & Logistics.

The 2015 MHI Executive Summit will kick off this year’s event with a half-day of sessions followed by the Annual Conference.
Executive Summit Keynote Speakers:
Patrick Murzyn, Global Purchasing Director at Caterpillar, Inc.
David, Simchi-Levi, Professor & Co-Director-Leaders for Global Operations, MIT

Annual Conference Keynote Speakers:
Mike Rowe, CNN’s Somebody’s Gotta Do it
David Butler, VP of Innovation & Entrepreneurship at Coca-Cola

In addition to the keynotes, the conference will include 10 panel sessions covering topics that include omnichannel fulfillment, automation, information systems and the supply chain workforce.

For the first time, MHI is opening up attendance for this conference to non-MHI members. First-time attendees to the conference receive complimentary admission – a $1,000 value.
The event will be held October 4-7 in Ponte Vedra, Florida.
