Internet of Things part III; Logistics CIO's interviewed; Konica Minolta talk 3PL relationships
Technology in a number of different guises is a mini-theme for this week’s newsletter.
Check out a Q&A series on how technology and logistics companies are becoming harder to distinguish, which has been produced in conjunction with the 16th Logistics CIO Forum in Amsterdam in November. There is also a video taken at the Hi-Tech and Electronics Supply Chain Summit between BLG and Konica Minolta about their 3PL & Customer relationship. Another feature worth highlighting is Steve Brady’s third column on the Internet of Things; this is a trend which everyone needs to keep their eye on.
Kind Regards,
