The first executive summit designed to initiate consensus to achieve multi-system interoperability with the goal of accomplishing a more sustainable and safer US food supply chain.
Traceability Institute's "Traceability Interoperability Summit 2010"
is scheduled to take place January 21 & 22, in Denver, Colorado.
The event aims to engage all solutions vendors and systems integrators
at work in the food supply chain in a constructive dialogue about the
roadmap to achieve solutions interoperability and controlled
transparency.
"This important event provides an objective and
neutral platform for food industry leaders and solutions vendors in the
traceability arena, as well as those exploring the traceability space,
to come together to discuss how we as an industry reach
interoperability," said Miodrag Mitic, Managing Partner, Traceability
Institute.
The day and a half executive conference is comprised
of presentations and roundtable discussions, dialogue and interaction
among government agencies, vendors, partners, component manufacturers,
systems integrators and industry leaders from the produce, animal
agriculture and fresh food industries. Technology vendors involved in
produce traceability, animal identification, cold chain and all other
food supply chain market segments are encouraged to attend.
"The complexity of the perishables supply chain requires a suite of
multi-vendor tools and technologies that are interoperable in order to
achieve optimization and authentication of products across all supply
chain trading partners," said Mr. Mitic. "This conference begins a
process that we hope will put into place the necessary environment,
tools, standards, and methods to help the nation's food suppliers,
retailers and service providers maintain a high level of product safety
and quality in an ever challenging business arena."
