    Highlights 1 & 2 October 2025

     

    * Site visit Nike & discussion key strategies 

    * Metrics that make a difference: senior-led peer to peer best practices ‘benchmarking’ to better understand how others run their supply chains so you can consider your own.  Including all stakeholders in the cross-sector F&L community:

    • Based on a wide range of your own KPIs, what do you want, how will you get it & why / where will it impact your performance? 
    • Transactional through to strategic implant: how does a shipper capture value from a long term LSP partnership?
    • We co-operate more than we compete – can we help our partners do more to help our resilience and crisis mitigation, given volatility, uncertainty, complexity and multiple contradictory pressures?  

    * Speed to market: behind the scenes 

    Continued community priority topics & specific interest breakout discussions will be confirmed.

    This meeting is for senior business leaders & their teams; people who are actively leading industry today.  

    Participants will be shown in due course.
