Supply Chain Intelligence with AWS: AI for Savings, Resilience, and Decarbonisation

Workshop Room 1
Speakers
Hilary Tam
Sustainability Leader, EMEA, Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Andrew Morrow
Solutions Architect, Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Supply chain and procurement teams face growing pressure to reduce costs, build resilience, and meet decarbonization targets at the same time. These goals can feel competing without the right intelligence. In this hands-on workshop, participants will gain exclusive access to AWS Quick Suite and see how AI agents transform complex supply chain data into immediate, actionable insights. This is not a demo—you’ll work directly in the platform on a real-world scenario, asking questions and generating analyses that would normally take weeks.
Bring your laptop and be ready to participate.
During the session, you’ll use pre-loaded supplier data and AI agents to identify cost savings, assess risks, uncover circular economy alternatives, and build business cases that link cost, resilience, and carbon reduction. You’ll leave with practical experience using AI for supply chain intelligence, clarity on AI-ready data, and ideas for piloting agentic AI in your operations.

Organisations operating vehicle fleets are under growing pressure to show real progress on net zero — not just produce reports. Regulation is tightening, costs are rising, and customers expect measurable action. Many organisations, however, struggle to translate ESG reporting and long-term targets into practical, scalable delivery.
This workshop explores the end-to-end net zero journey — from ESG reporting and strategy through to implementation, with a strong focus on fleet decarbonisation and electrification.
Participants will gain insight into:
- How ESG data can support better business decisions
- What a credible net zero roadmap looks like in practice
- Where fleet electrification creates value — and where it falls short
- Common implementation challenges and proven solutions
Combining expert perspectives with open discussion and audience participation, this session is designed to be practical, honest, and immediately relevant.
