Top e-Business & e-Supply Chain Executives Named by Richmond Events' The Logistics Forum & e-Supply Chain Forum 2001

The Top e-Business & Supply Chain Executives for 2000-2001 have been selected in a process sponsored by Richmond Events' The Logistics Forum & e-Supply Chain Forum 2001. This year's winners--nominated and chosen by their peers for their creativity, commitment to the industry and results--represent the movers and shakers in their respective fields.

"Our choices represent the best-in-class of e-business executives. Best-in-class is what The Logistics Forum and e-Supply Chain Forum 2001 is all about, and that's why we're proud to be associated with these business leaders," said David Shaw, Project Director of The Logistics Forum and e-Supply Chain Forum 2001.

Hundreds of nominations were solicited and received by Jeana Nordstrom, president of the New York Council of Logistics Management (CLM) Roundtable and chair of the nomination process. Final selections were made by an awards committee chaired by Ms. Nordstrom.

The winners will be invited as guests to Richmond Events' The Logistics Forum & e-Supply Chain Forum 2001, May 14-16, held onboard the cruise ship Queen Elizabeth 2, where they will receive an award for their distinguished accomplishments. They also will be featured in a special magazine to be published this month profiling these individuals and their achievements. This magazine will be a supplement to Chief Logistics Officer, a Penton Media publication and marketing partner with The Logistics Forum & e-Supply Chain Forum 2001.
