Artificial Intelligence is transforming supply chains—but how can companies turn digital innovation into measurable operational improvements?

As businesses across Asia-Pacific face increasing complexity, supply chain resilience, operational efficiency, and digital transformation have become strategic priorities. While many organizations are exploring AI, identifying practical applications that create lasting value remains a key challenge.

Join AHK Japan, together with 4flow and Schaeffler, for an interactive afternoon exploring how digitalization and AI are reshaping supply chain operations.

The event will begin with a live Operational Excellence & AI Maturity Check, inviting participants to benchmark their organization's digital readiness and exchange perspectives through an interactive discussion.

Building on these insights, 4flow will present practical AI applications across transportation, intralogistics, inventory management, and supply chain planning, demonstrating how digital technologies can improve visibility, optimize processes, and support better decision-making.

Schaeffler will complement these insights with a real-world case study from its APAC operations, sharing lessons learned from managing complex manufacturing and logistics networks across the region. Participants will gain practical perspectives on enhancing transparency, operational control, and resilience through digital solutions.

The event will conclude with a networking reception, providing an opportunity to connect with professionals from the manufacturing, logistics, and supply chain community, exchange experiences, and discuss the future of AI-driven operations.

Whether you are developing your digital strategy or looking for practical AI use cases, this event offers valuable inspiration, actionable insights, and the opportunity to expand your professional network.

Join us to discover how digitalization and AI are driving the next generation of operational excellence.
