Supply Chain Asia Forum (SCAF) began humbly in Bangkok in 2006 and has since grown progressively into a regional event. In 2013, we will be hosting our 9th annual forum.

Every year, Supply Chain Asia hopes to provide delegates an enriching networking and learning experience through SCAF. This year, we hope to engage a wider audience in the community by extending a special platform for young professionals to compete in the first ever Asia Pacific Supply Chain Management Competition.

At the same time, we seek to continue to engage the senior executives in the industry through the Thought Leadership Roundtable discussions.

Industry Site Visits as well as focused dialogues and discussions will be held on the first and last day of the event respectively to provide platforms for in-depth deliberations on specific topics, issues and challenges impacting the industry. 

This year, SCA is introducing a new section to the annual forum - Asia Pacific Supply Chain Management Challenge. This challenge is open to all students aged 18-25 years old who will compete by providing the best innovative solutions to real case studies of their selected companies. The top teams from countries within the region will come together on Day 2 of the forum for a final showdown. Definitely something not to be missed!
