Supply Chain Summit:  Fall 2024 

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the 2024 Florida Supply Chain Summit, originally scheduled for April 29, 30, and May 1, 2024, will not be held on those dates.

What’s the opportunity?

We will continue to move forward with a new fiscal agent to house the Summit, and the date will be determined later this year.

The location will be Miami.
