KEYNOTE PLENARY
Chair’s opening remarks
Moving beyond traditional manufacturing businesses: Building the future of Yamaha Motor
Data science in logistics
- Important know-hows to use advanced data processing technologies (e.g. AI and Neural Networking) to provide the best service for clients
- Technology platforms to exchange and manage semi-structured data-flows inside supply chain

How blockchain technology is revolutionising energy APAC and global energy industry
It was found that the majority of asset owners are actually paying more than what they need in running their businesses. With the help of block chain, a decentralised, secured platform can be created where the customer demand can be more accurately predicted, and surplus energy can be resell into the free market at a fair price. This helps to create happy customer and prevent energy wastage in as part of the building of smart cities.
