No-touch planning; fact or fiction?

The 5^th edition of the EyeOn international Planning Inspiration Day, PID 2019, was once again an inspiring and thought-provoking event. More than 500 participants from 250 leading companies – as well as universities and application vendors—met to share their ideas on no-touch, where humans are increasingly out of the loop. It was the big trend in forecasting and planning highlighted at EyeOn PID 2019. 

The knowledge and networking festival was all about inspiring, innovating and implementing. The festival featured two keynote speakers, more than 30 sub-themed sessions, a marketplace, demos, meet-ups and even a student hackathon dedicated to building a model green and sustainable supply chain.

All presentations of the PID 2019 can be found below. Please inform us if you want to catch up on any of the presentations of this day.
