Supply Chain and Project Management in the Fashion Industry
Description:
Fashion’s Rising Star: Supply Chain Project Management
To stay relevant and profitable in today’s retail environment, fashion brands must have flexible and transparent supply chains to keep up with ever changing consumer behaviors and demands. The flow of goods and services in the supply chain require a project management plan, the foundation for any brand. In this webinar, subject matter expert Jay Anderson will speak on the 5 pillars of supply chain project management in the fashion industry.
We are also looking forward to our 2 nd annual Fashion Day of Service in May, where PMINYC members will have the opportunity to mentor emerging entrepreneurs competing in the FSF Accelerator Grant program for the chance to win $50k to use towards scaling their businesses.
