ACHIEVING END-TO-END RETAIL COLLABORATION

September 25-27, 2023
Seattle, Washington

A New Event for a New Time.

After three years of massive disruption, the need for innovation and evolution of the supply chain has never been clearer.

This fall, RIS News and Retail Leader are joining forces to debut Value Chain Tech, a unique new annual event focused on the technologies that power the key pillars of value chain success: Agility. Resiliency. Collaboration. Sustainability.

This not-to-be missed experience encourages cross-disciplinary and cross-organizational collaboration, introduces new and emerging technologies, and shares cutting-edge case studies, insights, and strategies.

 

Day 2 of the 2023 Value Chain Tech event will kick off with a special breakfast where we will celebrate the first annual Retail Sustainability Awards.

 

Retailers and Consumer Goods manufacturers who attend the Value Chain Tech event will receive a complimentary ticket to the awards breakfast as part of their All-Access VCT pass.

Join us for a three-day experience focusing on the tools and strategies to
transform an organization's supply chain from a cost center into the backbone of value creation.

WHY NOW?

The Experience For Our Time.

According to Capgemini Research, 89% of business leaders consider the complexity and diversity of today's supply chain risks to be one of the largest threats to corporate growth.

Retail leaders are looking for technology that will transform their supply chains from a simple functional (and often linear) system to a holistic, integrated network focused on value creation.

From AI and automation, to last mile and delivery systems, to data-driven marketing efforts, and beyond, tech investments are key to unleashing success, and will remain at the heart of discussions throughout this collaborative three-day event.

Value Chain Tech is the space to sketch out the possibilities, to share ideas, and lay out a roadmap for putting purpose and value into all facets of the new supply chain.

Over three days, we will:

  • Introduce you to industry experts who are paving the way
  • Share best-in-class case studies
  • Provide frameworks that help translate ideas into action plans
  • Introduce you to new solution providers who can accelerate your progress

WHY THIS EVENT IS SO UNIQUE

A Robust Tech Stack is the Nerve Center of the Value Chain.

The Value Chain Tech event is unique in its unparalleled focus on the technologies that underpin and fuel the new value chain landscape.

Co-produced by RIS News and Retail Leader, the Value Chain Tech event is the first of its kind, designed to bring a community of stakeholders together to discuss how to achieve circular collaboration and grow better and stronger together.

From AI to automation, to last mile and delivery systems, to data-drive marketing efforts, and beyond, tech investments are key to unleashing success, and will remain at the heart of discussions throughout this collaborative three-day event. Value Chain Tech is the space to sketch out the possibilities and lay out a roadmap for putting purpose back into our processes every step of the way.
