Gustafsson will participate in the Summits Entrepreneurialism and Innovation Town Hall, which will explore innovations in business and technology that will create job opportunities to help repair the national economy.

The session is set for 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, June 16, in the Mackinac Room on the fifth floor of the Detroit Marriot Renaissance Center.
“Increased visibility and control in real time is a requirement for competitive advantage in todays global supply chains,” Gustafsson said. “To meet the needs of supply chain operators, technology companies must lead the way in improving the accuracy of information relating to their most important business processes for competitive advantage. The cost of inaccuracy within the supply chain is too high – from food recalls to patient safety.”
