4th SCRM Seminar Barcelona 2012

This is an event that should not be missed: The 4th supply chain risk managment seminar in Barcelona,  25th and 26th October 2012. This annual event has been featured on my blog since its first inception in 2009, and over the last 4 years, the seminar has provided many of the world’s leading organisations with a platform to find real “in-process” solutions to their specific Supply Chain Risk Management issues.

New format

This year they have reshaped the seminar to incorporate one full day dedicated to General Supply Chain Management issues and a second full day to Supply Chain Risk Management challenges. Will that make it an even greater success? I think so. It could be a sign that thye are running out of supply chain risk topic, but I chose to think that it’s a sign of greater integration of risk thinking into supply chain management thinking. That is perhaps also why they changed the name, it is the the Supply Chain and Supply Chain Risk Seminar.

Key Issues

Day 1 is devoted to Supply Chain Management, while Day 2 is devoted to Supply Chain Risk Management, albeit, looking at the program in more detail, Day 1 isn’t exactly void of any risk-related topics.
