APICS 2015 Dubai World Café 

 

A World Café is a unique and highly interactive process through which a specific issue is explored over the course of multiple diverse conversations. At the APICS 2015 World Café, participants will examine how, with professional and personal commitment, supply chains themselves can improve lives around the world. APICS 2015 Dubai borrows its theme from the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) conference, “Business as a Force for Good,” whose June 2015 event marked the 15th anniversary of the initiative’s launch. The UNGC, of which APICS is a signatory, works with businesses to create a sustainable and inclusive global economy that delivers lasting benefits to all people, communities, and markets. In this unique, interactive environment, attendees together will delve into the global responsibilities of corporations, supply chain professionals, and consumers.
