8:45 - 9:00 AM Welcome and Opening Remarks
9:00 – 10:30 AM Align a Supply Chain Strategy to Maximize Long Term Success in Reducing Cost and Improving Outcomes
Canada's healthcare system is both complex and interdependent where hospitals, provincial agencies, long term healthcare, public health and primary care all play a critical role. A significant continuing issue is the lack of integration across the system, which ultimately impacts the patients. A leading supply chain system can contribute to healthcare innovation, look out for technological changes, lower healthcare costs, and improve patient outcomes.

Leadership Series 3.0: Digital Transformation of Supply Chain
Recent studies have highlighted that globally CEOs consider technological disruption an opportunity, not a threat. While many organizations are on their way to achieving the status of a ‘digital enterprise’, the struggle for relating this to ROI still remains. Industry 4.0, IoT, machine learning, automation, robotics, and many game-changing technologies have changed the way supply chain operations take place in the post-COVID world. This event aims to empower you with tools and best practices that can help build your organization’s digital roadmap to success.
Location: Zoom virtual platform
Time: 8:45AM – 3:30 PM EST
Leadership Series 3.0: Sustainable Supply Chain
As customer behavior changes and consumer goods industries adapt various methodologies to meet the shifting, demanding pattern, one of the key factors governing the success of these industries is their sustainability performance. With pledges and treaties from governments and industry leaders, emphasis on reliable procurement of energy and natural resources, cognizance of ethical procurement of goods and services – sustainable supply chain is definitely a top priority for forward thinking organizations. Learn more about tools used, success stories and more importantly the how-to’s in getting started with your sustainability roadmap.
Location: Zoom virtual platform
Time: 8:45AM – 3:30 PM EST
Leadership Series 3.0: Women in Supply Chain
The Canadian supply chain landscape has transformed in many ways in the last few years. One of the transformations has been around women attaining decision making roles within their organizations. The pandemic itself has brought supply chain as a profession to the forefront, which in turn entails a future where more women will find themselves taking up pivotal roles within their teams. Join some of these women and those who have supported their journeys.
Non-member registration will include a membership until April 30, 2023 (for ON residents and new members only
Location: Zoom virtual platform
Time: 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM EDT
Leadership Series 3.0: Supplier Diversity
The term diversity has evolved over the last decade, but never quite as fast as it has in the last 2 years. While a few years back supplier diversity primarily referred to suppliers from underrepresented groups like women owned businesses, or small-scale businesses or minority owned businesses, today the realm of diversity has expanded to far more communities such as the Indigenous People, LGBTQ, communities with disabilities and more. It is no longer a choice, but an imperative for an organization to be consciously selective of their suppliers and give back to the customers by paving way for underserved communities to shine. This day will tackle how supplier diversity strategy not just helps the suppliers but also your supply chain operations and customer expectation management.
