The scheduled Major Session Speaker is Peter Carlsson, Tesla Motors' Vice President of Supply Chain, who will speak on the topic of, "Building a Complex Supply Chain from the Ground Up."

"I'm excited about all of it," said Nemeth. "The CSCMP organization is a great networking opportunity. My team from Allied Distribution and I enjoy meeting new customers and rekindling our business relationships each year.
