Tech and the Supply Chain

Arkieva, based out of Delaware but with a presence in Antwerp has rolled out its forecasting and ROI technology this week. Trading with some very well-known household names, this innovative new approach allows for historical Supply Chain Data to be entered, which then responds with up-to-date Market Forecasts.

In a time when well-run Supply Chains are at their most critical, this type of technology has significant potential for growth and industry use.

Tech Growth

This type of event shows the influence Berlin has on the European and International markets, offering a solid, healthy and adaptable ecosystem.  It is the type of environment that no doubt is of great help to companies such as the Berlin-based startup everyphone whose cost-efficient offering of smartphone and tablets to diverse organisations have been warmly received,  and reduces costs!

This is a necessity when high spec digitization is a firm requirement in all organisations.
