The afternoon of the first day at the Ivalua Now event in Paris had a strong AI (artificial intelligence) flavour. (Now there’s an interesting question – if AI had a flavour, what exactly would it be? Fresh mint, maybe? Or aluminium, perhaps?) Anyway, there were also a couple of very good customer cases studies, but we’ll save those for a future discussion and focus on AI here.

And, 10% of the items in your warehouse will never be sold, according to Slimstock inventory analysts. These items are unlikely to bring in revenue, so why are you holding on to them? ELIMINATING EXCESS STOCK TAKES COURAGE! The problem is that removing these items from your operation is easier said than done.

I do not believe in horoscopes but people are telling me that my sign has everything to do with many of my quirks such as ordering, organizing and following routines. Putting things in order is my natural tendency. Organizing or clustering drawers, shelves, libraries or desktops, whether digital or not, is like a second nature to me. I am always the one putting caps on the pens, closing open lids or cupboards, and straightening the frames on the walls.

It’s not many conference organisers who are praying for no-shows the night before the event. But when I saw the Ivalua team at the opening reception last night, before the start of today’s Ivalua Now conference, they were hoping for a decent number of people not turning up! Registrations were closed last week, but not before the take-up had been way ahead of expectations and last year’s event.
