14:10 Manufacturing & Distribution 2020: How your business’ unique needs will be met by the eCommerce platforms of the future

Traditional distribution chains are being disrupted by the transparency and efficiency of the internet. Many participants in those demand chains who don’t have direct end customer relationships are rushing to develop their “on-line” brands to supplement and potentially replace their existing channel strategy.

During this session, we will discuss a few alternative digital commerce strategies to enhance your existing channels and look to improve your demand chain, instead of replacing it.
