SUMMARY: ARCHSTONE
CONSULTING AND WORLD INTERNET CENTER OFFER STRATEGIC INTELLIGENCE
SESSION ON SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT:
THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 2004
Summary below.
On Thursday, July 24, over sixty executives and supply chain experts
gathered at Villa Montalvo, the historic estate in Saratoga, Calif.,
for an afternoon of dialogue at the 2004 Innovators Forum on "Making
Your Supply Chain an Engine for Driving Value." In collaboration
with the World Internet Center, this session was hosted by Archstone
Consulting (http://www.archstoneconsulting.com),
a firm focused on delivering independent, strategic advice and operational
results.
Archstone Consulting's premise is that in the next five years,
companies that outperform their peers will do so through their supply
chains. The event was designed to share strategies on how to use
your supply chain as a sales and growth engine for competitive advantage.
The session showcased a stellar line up of presenters, including
the EVP of Sears, the COO of NetFlix, RadioShack, Pepsi, Levi Strauss,
and others.
More details from the afternoon's findings will be announced in
future newsletters and posted on the Center's Website.

"COOPETITION," THE
CORE OF THE WORLD INTERNET CENTER, MAKES THE PRESS CHECK OUT THIS
MONTH'S PM NETWORK MAGAZINE
Further information below.
"Coopetition," the art of bringing competitors together to collaborate
for a greater good, is the core of the World Internet Center's culture.
Check out an interesting article in this month's PM Network, the
magazine for the Project Management Institute (http://www.pmi.org),
where Dr. Susan Duggan, the CEO of the World Internet Center is
quoted as saying, "If you can get [companies] into a coopetition
mode, . . . their commonalities provide for innovative solutions
rather than them defining themselves into a narrow trench." More
in the June issue of PM Network!
