Webinar Approaching: Global SRM Research Report -
Harnessing and Growing Supplier Innovation
In this webinar replay, Molly Louthan, managing director of State of Flux North America, shares the eleventh year of research into Supplier Management.
More firms are increasingly recognizing the untapped critical value that supplier-enabled innovation can bring to help drive growth, but why are there so few firms able to capitalize on it? As new technologies and economic challenges threaten businesses around the world, there has never been a greater need for supplier management to help secure the opportunities that come with the territory.
We can all learn from the experience of the companies brought together in this report. Now is the time to start applying the lessons.
