WHOELSE SHOULD ATTEND THE SUPPLY CHAIN SUMMIT SERIES?

§ Directors of conflict mineral programs

— BEN GROSS, MICROCHIP

The Supply Chain Summit Series was a rare occasion where I forced myself to push

the pause button on everything going on at the office so I could really focus on the

conference. The series offered me relevant information in a manner that I haven’t

found anywhere else. The knowledge I gained was well worth the backlog of emails

that accumulated while I was out of office. Choosing to attend was a valuable

investment of my time.

— JILL OTHOUDT, PENTAIR

Boris Kamstra’s keynote presentation really reminded me why proper

conflict mineral due diligence is so significant on a global scale. It’s

easy to lose sight of why conflict mineral regulation compliance is so

important, but the presentation really drove home why I do what I do,

and why this work matters. I left the conference feeling inspired.
