This is our manufacturing issue.

Seeking a contract manufacturer in Asia, or securing continued brand recognition in your markets, there are interesting articles for you here. The big US brands—Mr. Potato Head, or Barbie, well, they have foreign passports now.

This issue introduces two new columns for Parallax View:

  • The Interview
    We kick off this column with a truly interesting person- Jim Rogers. To call him author of a best selling book minimizes this brilliant and fascinating individual.
  • 3Pe in Action Case Studies
    We asked our readers what would be the most useful and educational content. Over and over again, case studies were requested and here they are. Not just the technology, but process innovation and real performance improvements!

Next month is our technology issue. Think companies are not getting value out of their supply chain apps? Think again—or read Parallax View next month. We looked at hundreds of projects. The results of our research will put a very painful and public chapter to rest for good, I hope.

September means back on the road. Conference season! And the grand duke of them all—The Council of Logistics Management—CLM—will take place in Chicago. ChainLink is running the Global Logistics Track. Learn about what it really takes to play and win on the global stage.

I am really excited about a new column we will launch in September:
Leaders in Supply Chain. I love learning and interacting with people who have the courage to make things happen. Their personal and truly inspiring stories will be freatured in Parallax View.

If you want to be an extraordinary person, you have to put out extraordinary energy. That’s how it works!

Enjoy the rest of your summer and see you in Chicago!
