Kinaxis Global Supply Chain Conference Sets Record Growth to “Win the Moment”

Kinaxis® Inc. (TSX: KXS), the leader in empowering people to make confident supply chain decisions, is kicking off its annual user conference in Orlando, FL. Kinexions ’19 (#Kinexions19) brings together Kinaxis users and supply chain innovators to connect and discuss best practices, share knowledge and learn how to accelerate the journey towards concurrent planning in an end-to-end supply chain.

This year’s event is the largest Kinexions to date and builds on the momentum of the Kinaxis community of concurrent planning advocates and the company’s success in global industries such as aerospace and defense, automotive, consumer products, high-tech and electronics, industrial and life sciences.

Driven by the theme of “Win the Moment,” the four-day event will feature interactive demos, customer-led breakouts, certification training, inspiring keynotes and general sessions focused on turning strategy into practical, operational success.

From the mainstage, Kinaxis will unveil new and expanded capabilities and applications for RapidResponse®, the world’s only concurrent planning platform that lets people make and manage synchronized plans across time horizons, business processes and organizational boundaries simultaneously. Kinaxis will also be joined by leading companies like P&G, Ipsen, GLOBALFOUNDRIES and CSL Behring to share their insightful supply chain journeys.
