RSi customer Kristen Curtis, Vice President of Supply Chain Planning at Safeway will present “Making Data Sharing Work: A Retailer Perspective,” where she will share insights on how the company has expanded its data-sharing programs by working collaboratively with suppliers and leveraging data with the help from RSi to achieve significant financial benefit.
