Material Handling & Logistics Conference
Dematic launches series of events
Dematic is inviting its customers to an exclusive network meeting for the first time. This is also the kick-off event for the new international series of events, the Material Handling & Logistics Conference (MHLC). On February 18, 2019 at the Mövenpick Hotel Stuttgart Airport, participants will be able to find out about trends and strategies in supply chain management.
Best practice examples
Top international speakers will provide cross-industry insights into best practice examples and innovative solutions for intralogistics. The aim is to provide participants with inspiration for organizational change. "The kick-off event gives participants a first taste of the MHLC," says Jessica Heinz, Head of Marketing at Dematic. "Thanks to the out-of-the-box approach, we are focusing even more strongly on the needs of our customers in order to further optimize our automation solutions on this basis." Prof. Dr. Michael Feindt, founder and Chief Scientific Advisor of Blue Yonder GmbH, will also give a keynote speech.
Four subject areas
The program is divided into four themed streams so that participants can find out exactly what is relevant to them. In the first stream, Laura Winterling, physicist and astronaut instructor, will address the topic of "Work and Leadership". The "Power of Data" is the topic of the contribution by Dr. Rand Hindi, co-founder and CEO of Snips. Franz Hero, Senior Vice President Supply Chain & Logistics at SAP, will explain how companies can "optimize workflows". As the demands on the supply chain are constantly increasing, the fourth stream "next generation of the supply chain" will be addressed by three experts: Guido Baltes (Director of the Institute of Strategic Innovation and Technology Management), Uwe Horstmann (futurist, investor, start-up founder and expert) and Luis Solis (Director of the Advanced Learning Innovation Program at IEBusiness School).
