Background to <strong>SCOPE</strong><br />

<strong>SCOPE</strong> is now <strong>the</strong> leading executive level supply chain conference in <strong>the</strong> US, playing host<br />

to hundreds of senior-level supply chain executives from <strong>the</strong> world’s largest and most<br />

successful organiz<strong>at</strong>ions<br />

Attendance <strong>at</strong> <strong>SCOPE</strong> Conferences has soared over <strong>the</strong> last few years, increasing from 195 Senior-Level Executives <strong>at</strong> our<br />

launch event in 2007 to over 1000 in 2012. This dram<strong>at</strong>ic growth despite <strong>the</strong> tough economy is a massive testimony to <strong>the</strong><br />

value we provide our Attendees.<br />

Why is <strong>SCOPE</strong> <strong>the</strong> Ind<strong>us</strong>try’s Fastest Growing Event?<br />

We provide unparalleled levels of C<strong>us</strong>tomer Service to ensure we deliver <strong>the</strong> highest posible value to every <strong>at</strong>tendee. We<br />

are also on a genuine journey of continuo<strong>us</strong> improvement surveying Attendees after each event and reacting on <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

Why is My Pass<br />

Complimentary?<br />

We all know <strong>the</strong>re is no such thing as a free lunch, so why am I being offered<br />

2 lunches, pl<strong>us</strong> a free dinner, breakfasts, drinks receptions, hotel<br />

accommod<strong>at</strong>ion and Full Access Conference Pass?<br />

The reason why we can cover <strong>the</strong> cost of VIP Passes for qualified <strong>at</strong>tendees rel<strong>at</strong>es to <strong>the</strong> element of <strong>the</strong> program where we<br />

coordin<strong>at</strong>e targeted research meetings with exhibitors. For exhibitors this presents a much more effective route to connect<br />

with potential partners than a traditional trade show or conference and as such <strong>the</strong>y are prepared to pay a premium for<br />

exhibiting. We <strong>the</strong>n essentially pass this premium on by covering <strong>the</strong> cost of <strong>the</strong> VIP Passes for qualified <strong>at</strong>tendees<br />

The good news all round is th<strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> targeted appointments are also perceived as one of <strong>the</strong> most valuable elements of <strong>the</strong><br />

program by <strong>at</strong>tendees. It’s a genuine win - win for both exhibitors and <strong>at</strong>tendees We only connect you with suppliers of<br />

solutions in which you have an active interest in researching. You’ll be met by a senior level executive who has taken time<br />

to prepare pertinent inform<strong>at</strong>ion, relevant to your company and areas of interest. You have a relaxed informal disc<strong>us</strong>sion to<br />

understand wh<strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong>y have to offer and if <strong>the</strong>ir technology might work for your unique needs. It is without doubt <strong>the</strong> most<br />

time efficient medium to research and understand wh<strong>at</strong> cutting edge technology is potentially available to help optimize your<br />

oper<strong>at</strong>ions.<br />

This portion of <strong>the</strong> event reflects around 25% of your time <strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> conference, with <strong>the</strong> remaining 75% being made up of<br />

Keynote Present<strong>at</strong>ions, Plenary Present<strong>at</strong>ions, Case Studies and Round Tables. For more details on how <strong>the</strong> program works,<br />

Instead of wandering a hall, finding a vendor I wanted to<br />

talk to, and <strong>the</strong>n having to wait in line to speak, I simply<br />

showed up <strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> booth <strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> appointed time and had an<br />

uninterrupted disc<strong>us</strong>sion with <strong>the</strong> vendor I was interested<br />

in. It was a gre<strong>at</strong> <strong>us</strong>e of my time.”<br />

<strong>the</strong> form<strong>at</strong> of <strong>SCOPE</strong> East 2011. Wh<strong>at</strong> impressed me<br />

most about <strong>the</strong> form<strong>at</strong> were <strong>the</strong> scheduled appointments<br />

with preselected vendors. And during <strong>the</strong> time I was not<br />

<strong>at</strong> a scheduled meeting I was able to <strong>at</strong>tend one of <strong>the</strong><br />

educ<strong>at</strong>ional present<strong>at</strong>ions. Ano<strong>the</strong>r interesting positive<br />

aspect of <strong>the</strong> form<strong>at</strong> was actively engaging in <strong>the</strong> Big<br />

Question Think Tanks”.<br />

> <strong>Supply</strong> Support Branch Manager, Naval Air Warfare Center -<br />

Training System Division<br />

“The 30-minutes ‘speed d<strong>at</strong>ing’ form<strong>at</strong> was a huge success<br />

and much preferred by both <strong>us</strong> and <strong>the</strong> vendors we met<br />

with compared to <strong>the</strong> unscheduled casual exhibit booth<br />

convers<strong>at</strong>ions th<strong>at</strong> have occurred in <strong>the</strong> past. The quality<br />

of <strong>the</strong> speakers and <strong>the</strong> content of <strong>the</strong>ir present<strong>at</strong>ions hit<br />

<strong>the</strong> nail on <strong>the</strong> head. The hotel setting certainly contributed<br />

to <strong>at</strong>tendees’ comfort, so <strong>the</strong>y were very open, gracio<strong>us</strong>,<br />

interactive. Gala dinner was superb!”<br />

> President, Bayley Organics<br />

“The structure is excellent. It keeps your day b<strong>us</strong>y and<br />

foc<strong>us</strong>ed with having everything scheduled in advance. The<br />

venue chosen was excellent.”<br />

> Director-<strong>Supply</strong> <strong>Chain</strong>, Global Faucets, Kohler Company<br />
