Manufacturing and supply chain leaders are facing unprecedented disruption on the receiving end of volatile trade policy—making it tempting to pause decisions until clarity emerges. But waiting for certainty can mean losing momentum and competitive advantage.

With the pace of disruption accelerating, we’re starting the North American Manufacturing Executive Summit now with a series of facilitated, candid discussions for enterprise leaders—and you’re invited.

Join us for our first virtual discussion featuring Sean Trainor, SVP Manufacturing and Supply Chain at HP, to explore immediate, actionable strategies directly from peer leaders navigating this uncertainty alongside you.
