Chicago, IL (PRWEB) April 9, 2008 -- Low-Cost Country Sourcing is more important than ever. In fact, it's no longer a good idea - it's a corporate necessity. But with recession knocking at the door, plus soaring raw materials costs, currency fluctuations, and new tax regimes in many low-cost countries, projected cost savings are easily eroded.
Procurement professionals who are interested in hearing how to transform these threats to their bottom line into lucrative opportunity should attend the 3rd eyeforprocurement Low-Cost Country Sourcing Conference taking place at the Hyatt Regency Chicago on June 25-27, 2008. http://www.eyeforprocurement.com/lccs2008chicago/
This Conference will bring together an unrivalled set of expert speakers from global sourcing leaders - procurement professionals who've lived and worked in prime low-cost areas. The delegates will also have ample time for networking and making valuable new contacts, with official representatives from a variety of low-cost countries who are confirmed to attend the conference.
Confirmed speakers include: Chris Holmes, Head of Global Sourcing Capabilities, Novartis; Kinnar Ghiya, Director Procurement, Asia Microsoft; Craig Mc Monigle, VP Global Procurement, Hallmark; Joseph Youssef, Director of Global Technology Supplier Management, McDonalds; Kees Gerretse, CPO, Corus; Kurt Doelling, VP Supply Management, Sun Microsystems; Siva Yam, President, US-China Chamber of Commerce; Hector Marquez, Director Trade and NAFTA Office, Embassy of Mexico; Minister Ernesto Paz, Consul General of the Republic of Argentina in Chicago.
