This flagship event brings together leaders from across logistics, operations, procurement, and supply chain management to explore how the industry is evolving amid global shifts, rising costs, and advancing technologies.
A Future-Focused Agenda
The 2025 agenda is packed with keynotes, case studies, panel discussions, and interactive sessions, all focused on transformation, resilience, and strategic leadership.
Day one opens with a keynote on end-to-end supply chain transformation, highlighting how investment in integrated capabilities can reduce costs and increase value. A panel on the National Freight and Supply Chain Strategy will examine the freight sector’s critical contribution to Australia’s economy.
Case studies will explore workforce skills, external collaboration, and the increasing role of generative AI in managing risk. Roundtable discussions will tackle hot topics such as ESG, agility, customer-centricity, and tech innovation.
Day two shifts to leadership and digital transformation, with sessions covering regulatory updates on Australia’s upcoming mandatory sustainability reporting, and the integration of carbon footprint tracking across product life cycles.
