Consumer goods leaders gear up for CGF’s IOO HORIZON event to advance data-driven, sustainable value chains
PARIS, FRANCE, September 2, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Consumer Goods Forum (CGF), the only CEO-led organisation that unites manufacturers and retailers globally, will bring together industry leaders at IOO HORIZON to explore the cutting-edge intersection of data, sustainability, and the transformation of supply chains within the consumer goods sector. The event will take place from 3-4 October in Sitges, Spain.
With global value chains increasingly dependent on data and innovation, IOO Horizon offers a dedicated forum for decision makers across the consumer goods sector to hear the latest insights and sustainable practices shaping current and future value chains. At the conference, service providers, retailers, and manufacturers will discuss the strategic implications of new technologies for their businesses directly with the creators of these innovations.

Providing a unique space for digital and sustainability experts to collaborate and share solutions that enhance profitability and yield positive outcomes for the planet and society at the same time.
Ruediger Hagedorn, End-to-End Value Chain Director at the CGF, said: “In the race for innovation and sustainable growth, it’s vital for companies to collaborate and share learnings that will catalyse positive systemic change within the consumer goods industry. IOO Horizon is designed to empower leaders with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate their journey towards a better future.”
Keynote speeches at the conference will include:
