Claire Umney, general manager at AEB International (pictured), said: "Logistics, global trade, and supply chain management as a whole are highly complex business sectors, subject to both continuous growthand constant dynamics. Training and education are incredibly important to keep up with constantly changing regulations and to truly grasp how all the various business areas and different partners of global supply chains collaborate to deliver smooth logistics services across borders. Understanding how integral IT has become for logistics today is a basic requirement for a successful career in these sectors, and as a provider of supply chain management solutions we have a great interest in supporting young professionals and to help them succeed. We’re delighted to sponsor this CILT(UK) initiative and look forward to meeting aspiring logistics experts in January."
