#SCC20 Live is this year’s edition of the SCMAP Supply Chain Conference, the most prestigious event in Philippine supply chain. Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the associated restrictions on physical gatherings, the event has been reimagined into three online events which will continue to explore supply chain’s greater role in connecting, engaging and moving lives, particularly during these extraordinary times. More speakers will be announced in the coming days.

This event is presented in partnership with Vuealta and Anaplan, while tomorrow’s session is sponsored by F2 Logistics.
