His session, "Disruptive Technologies Most Likely to Impact Trade and Customs,” will examine some of the industry’s top disruptors, like Artificial Intelligence, Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things, and how they are transforming companies’ trade and customs operations.

“While COVID-19 revealed the impact to companies that did not have supply chain risk mitigation plans, we’re now also seeing the emergence of Industry 4.0 and disruptive technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and the Industrial Internet of Things,” said Peck. “The importance to trade-dependent companies is that these combined issues make it an optimum time to both rethink supply chain strategies and incorporate supporting technologies capable of tearing down traditionally siloed supply chain activities. This is done by having end-to-end order visibility, together with tools like predictive analytics and real-time shipment alerts.”
