SCM Trend Dinner 2026

Calander 26th August 2026
Online The Netherlands
Where Supply Chain Directors separate trends from hype

Which developments deserve your attention? And which will disappear as quickly as they emerged?

At the SCM Trend Dinner, Supply Chain Directors come together for a relaxed evening of networking, discussion and thought-provoking trend insights. Set against the informal backdrop of a 6-course walking dinner, connect with peers while exchanging experiences on the challenges shaping supply chains today and tomorrow.

Trend pitches between courses

Between courses, experts from organisations including Slimstock, IG&H, Horizon Solutions, Capgemini, Axis Communications, Lobster, Alpega, BuyCo and Oliver Wight will share their perspective on the most significant developments in the market through a series of short, high-impact pitches.

No product demonstrations or lengthy presentations but concise insights into:

  • Relevant market trends and external developments
  • Their impact on businesses and supply chains
  • Future challenges
  • Potential strategies and solutions

Trend or hype?

A key element of the SCM Trend Dinner is a discussion centred around one question:

What is a lasting trend, and what is merely hype?

Together, attendees assess which developments are creating real impact and which are attracting attention without delivering lasting value. At the end of the evening, participants vote for the most compelling trend pitch. The winner receives the SCM Thought Leader Award 2026.

Willem Vesters will be attending on behalf of Oliver Wight. With over 20 years of experience across supply chain, procurement, technology, and operations, he’d welcome the opportunity to discuss your business challenges, share practical insights, and explore how leading organisations are improving performance. If you’re attending, arrange a conversation with Willem.
