Our 2018 Supply Chain Summit will be here before we know it! This one day event features a stellar line up of speakers presenting on numerous topics pertaining to cybersecurity, generational shifts, big data and analytics, “Industry 4.0,” and much more! Here’s a quick look at two of our speakers and the issues they’ll be discussing.

In today’s increasingly technology driven and connected world, protecting data is more challenging – and more critical – than ever before. In fact, according to the World Economic Forum (WEF), a significant portion of cybercrime goes undetected, which only underscores the difficulty of securing sensitive information.

What you don’t know can hurt you – especially when it comes to identifying suppliers in areas where natural disasters, geopolitical unrest and other disruptive factors have the potential to impact your business. In light of this, AIAG has created a valuable new member benefit: a global supplier site map designed to facilitate greater visibility of information, and help companies identify and manage risk in their extended supply chains.

Come for the morning, afternoon, or all day! AIAG’s annual Conflict Minerals Industry Briefing is scheduled for June 12, 2018. Morning sessions are designed for those who are new to reporting, while afternoon sessions are geared toward more experienced conflict minerals reporters. Please note that separate morning and afternoon registration options are available in addition to full-day registration.

The “Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act” (CAATSA), signed into law August 2017, imposes new sanctions on Iran, Russia, and North Korea. CAATSA reiterates the need for comprehensive due diligence by and on behalf of U.S. companies involved in importing goods. Careful consideration of, and reasonable care with respect to, the different risks presented in your supply chain should always be taken into account when importing into the United States.
