Step into a world where enchanted swords clash, spells weave through the air, and a diverse band of adventurers unite to face insurmountable challenges. No, we’re not describing a mythical realm but the captivating parallel between managing a partner ecosystem and playing the fantasy tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons (often called D&D by enthusiasts).

At the turn of the millennium, the supply chain sector experienced a massive sea change. The industrial revolution gave way to the technological revolution, and within a decade or two, there were more ways to make, move, deliver, and buy products and services than ever before. The result was more vast and complex supply chain infrastructures that allowed brands to reach a broader audience and identify more growth opportunities, but also required more oversight.

WILMINGTON, Del., and AUSTIN, Texas – February 15, 2024 - E2open Parent Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ETWO), the connected supply chain SaaS platform with the largest multi-enterprise network, and WaveBL, a blockchain-based electronic bills of lading (eBL) platform, have partnered to enable faster, safer, and more efficient transfer of information for containerized international trade.

Die Modernisierung des Zollwesens ist aus mehreren zwingenden Gründen ein heißes Thema geworden. Angesichts des zunehmenden internationalen Handelsvolumens, das durch B2B- und B2C E-Commerce-Technologien vorangetrieben wird, rationalisieren und modernisieren die Zollverwaltungen weltweit ihre Abläufe. Bei Modernisierungsmaßnahmen wird Technologie für ein verbessertes Risikomanagement, eine bessere Abfertigung und eine bessere Einhaltung der Vorschriften eingesetzt, denn ein gut funktionierendes Zollsystem hat weitreichende Vorteile. Es erleichtert den Handel, senkt die Kosten, gewährleistet eine gerechte Steuererhebung und stärkt die nationale Sicherheit. Diese Vorteile unterstreichen die Dringlichkeit der Modernisierung von Zollprozessen, aber Importeure und Exporteure müssen auf dem Laufenden bleiben, da diese Aktualisierungen viele Aspekte der Lieferketten beeinflussen. 

Supply chains evolved and were impacted positively and negatively by global events along the way. Digitization and transformation were leading topics in the early 2000s as most production shifted to higher-risk yet lower-cost countries over the decades. Increased cross-border regulations soon followed as countries saw the need to safeguard their exports and generate revenue from imports, priming the landscape for geopolitical disruptions.

It’s that time again – time for the brightest thinkers in the supply chain industry to converge for Connect Europe 2024. In the past, we’ve visited some great cities, learned about some exciting new trends and strategies, and seen old friends (and made a few new ones). This year will be no different. We’ve got great expectations for 2024. Forget all the talk of disruption and uncertainty, – it's time to move ahead! Connect Europe 2024 will kick off our journey forward into the future, and like every journey, how we get there is as important as where we’re going. And we’re going to get there together! With that in mind, we’ve decided to compile a list of the five best reasons to attend this year’s event.

As the head of the product marketing team at e2open, I have the pleasure of collaborating with a fantastic group of subject matter experts. I want you to imagine we’re all fishing on the lake together, and someone asks the group a question. Each will provide their own view from their area of expertise – supply management, logistics, global trade, and planning. This article differs from our usual thought leadership pieces because I asked each team member to answer two questions, and we’re presenting their responses here in this more conversational format.
