[Webinar] Blockchain, Explained: The Future of Supply Chain Transparency.

Overview of Webinar

Growing global complexity in supply chain management has forced procurement organizations to look towards technology as their silver bullet, serving as the missing link between people and collaboration at scale.

Could Blockchain Technology be procurement’s silver bullet?

Reports show that the global market value of Blockchain technology is trending; the market value of its application in supply chain management is predicted to rise from around USD 40.99M in 2017 to approx. USD 666.61M by 2024.

Blockchain’s distributed ledger infrastructure could reshape the way we look at quality, transparency and governance within procurement. The opportunities are plentiful, but the jargon, hype and conceptualization of blockchain for SCM remain more prominent than actual implementations.

For this reason, Kodiak Rating is hosting a webinar on September 27th, 2018, joined by our CTO – Ashley Stephenson, to explain the technology a bit more clearly, and really begin to understand its potential application within procurement - without all the bells and whistles attached.
