Zyme Announces Global CDM Summit Speakers From Fortune 500 Companies

Zyme, the market leader in the rapidly growing discipline of channel data management (CDM), today announced the expanded speaker lineup for its upcoming Global Channel Data Management Summit New York City, featuring executives from several Fortune 500 companies. The company's third CDM Summit scheduled for Dec. 1 will offer invaluable insights on channel strategy and solutions from Zyme customers, partners, analysts and industry thought leaders representing Accenture, CREE, General Electric, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, IBM, Steelwedge, Ventana Research and Xactly.

Attendees will learn how CDM can revolutionize their company's channel performance and deliver the maximum ROI from sales through channel partners. By leveraging the latest cloud-based CDM technology, businesses can establish a real-time flow of channel data that serves as a "single source of truth," surfacing new opportunities and uncovering a wide variety of risks and inefficiencies that result from poor channel visibility.


Global enterprises have increased their focus on CDM in recent years, as improved technology enables the collection of accurate data from the channel and companies demonstrate the value of channel visibility for critical business decisions across sales, marketing, supply chain management and a range of other processes. According to conservative estimates, poor channel visibility leads to losses in the form of misallocated incentive payments and inventory markdowns that cost technology and industrial companies $50 billion a year.

The all-day event hosted by Zyme will include thought leadership keynotes, breakout sessions and a customer panel discussion designed to educate attendees that are new to CDM as well as those with deep channel experience.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.
