Which mountain to climb?

The cutting-edge innovation event in supply chain

The fifth edition of inNOWvate Supply Chain Event, at Movie Theatre Pathé, Ede (The Netherlands), was a great success.

The theme of the 2022 edition was ‘Which mountain to climb?’, letting delegates choose a path to either Peak Planning, Sustainable Summit or Mount Visibility.

 

Inspired by a keynote presentation of Dutch movie director Martin Koolhoven on storytelling, supply chain executives Tariq Farooq (SVP Global Supply Chain at Sanofi and No. 1 Supply Chain Executive in Europe 2021), Sami Naffakh (Chief Supply Officer at Reckitt and No. 2 Supply Chain Executive in Europe 2021), Robert Pekar (Vice President Supply Petcare Europe at Mars) and Francesca Gamboni (Chief Supply Chain Officer at Accell) shared their personal stories and views from the top, moderated by IMD professor Carlos Cardon.
