About the Conference
In this conference we will be exploring changes in the supply chain as it relates to the customer/supplier relationship and will help senior executives make strategic decisions affecting their companies. As larger primes focus on becoming large-scale integrators or high-speed assemblers, tier ones and mid-tier suppliers are now becoming the new “Customers” for lower tier suppliers.
