British Airways CIO Paul Coby will address more than 150 of his peers from the supply chain and logistics industry at the eyefortransport Logistics Technology Forum, February 19-20, 2009, Amsterdam.
The Forum, now in its 10th year, will address key issues highlighted in the 2008 EFT Logistics Technology Report. The report surveyed more than 150 key industry players and showed that the majority of supply chain executives plan to maintain or increase their investment in technology solutions and services, despite feeling the effects of the economic crisis.
At the Forum, more than 35 expert CIOs and transport executives will spend two days addressing topics including integration, visibility, security and environmental concerns. CIOs from transport & logistics companies, as well as top executives from major manufacturers and retailers can gain complimentary passes to the event by registering online with eyefortransport.
For the first time ever, this year's Forum will have two distinct tracks: one for shippers, and one for transport & logistics providers. This format allows all participants to gain an in-depth analysis of the key issues facing their specific side of the industry.
Notable companies featured in the shippers' track include Mars, Bausch & Lomb, Philips, Coors Brewers, HP, Honda and Unilever. In the transport & logistics track, speakers represent companies including DHL, British Airways, CEVA Logistics, Fiege, Kuehne + Nagel and Delta.
Technology service and solution providers are invited to participate at the event as supporting partners. Interested companies should contact David Embelton at eyefortransport. Telephone: +44 20 7375 7174 or email david.embelton@eyefortransport.com
