If you have company affiliates or customers in India, they'll soon have a chance to experience the same high-quality supply chain education you enjoy in the United States. From Feb. 22 to 23, the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) will host its India 2013 conference in Mumbai.

The conference, titled "Creating Effective Supply Chains in a Global Economy," will bring together supply chain executives from well-known global companies, including Wal-Mart, Starbucks, and Kraft, as well as representatives of influential Indian firms. The keynote address will be given by John Phillips, senior vice president of customer supply chain and logistics for PepsiCo Inc. Other sessions will look at supply chain efficiency and cost management, supply chain strategic planning, and challenges in retail logistics.

The cost to attend is just $180 for CSCMP members and $370 for nonmembers. More information about the program is available here.
