This year’s Global Operations Conference will focus on “Operations in a Dynamic World.” As the application of technology permeates business practices, it empowers companies to redefine industry standards. The world of operations is changing rapidly and businesses are pushing the frontier of what was once thought possible. Experts from a wide-range of industries will offer insights into how they use operations to propel their businesses to new heights and redefine the competitive landscape. The Thursday evening keynote is Amazon’s Director of Fulfillment Execution Data Science, Sam Eldersveld.

This annual conference is organized by the students of the Tauber Institute for Global Operations at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

The main objective of the Global Operations Conference is to bring together global leaders in industry and academia to share, debate and strategize to advance the worldwide practice of operations.
