"Collaboration" is a supply chain buzzword that people often talk about in theory but rarely implement in practice. And yet smart organizations have found big payoffs in collaborations that not only share costs and risks but also rewards.
Social and environmental impacts are rarely the result of any single player. Meanwhile, the soaring costs of responsibility in the global supply chain up the ante on collaborations. Even bigger rewards may await those who tackle the collaboration challenge.
This conference will explore how innovative collaborations between businesses, nonprofits, and governments can solve social and environmental problems while maintaining or even enhancing profits.
Speakers include: Stanford Emergency Medicine in Haiti, Johnson Controls, Nike, Natura Cosmetics Brazil, McDonald's India, Levi Strauss, and more.
Registration discount available through March 5, 2010. Additional discount for Stanford Social Innovation Review subscribers.
