Peerless Media and SCMR announce the launch of the NextGen Supply Chain Conference, the premier educational conference for senior-level SCM professionals that answers the question: “What’s next in supply chain management?”

More than 200 senior-level supply chain, operations, procurement and corporate executives are expected to attend the 2nd annual event on downtown Chicago’s Magnificent Mile.

We have a terrific lineup of speakers from companies like Lenovo, GE, Dell, IBM and Cisco”, said Brian Ceraolo, CEO of Peerless. “It’s become a must-attend event for senior-level professionals to learn how these new technologies will considerably impact their supply chains.”
