Why become a member

With all those organizations out there which vie for your attention, what makes us different? What do we offer that will blow your mind and ensure your loyalty?

Here is the answer:

Take advantage of our learning groups/knowledge sharing platform on the SCNexus to connect with and learn about any topic with any member....Refer the SCNexus tab for details

Get rewarded for your activities. We offer an attractive point system which keeps track of any activity that you contribute to on the network. You get points for posting articles, creating learning groups, discussions, referring members, attending conferences, interviewing Supply chain people, anything that contributes to our knowledge base.

Our rewards include discounts on ISCEA certifications, free global conference passes, networking luncheons with our corporate partners and some free holiday packages too.

Have any idea that could be the next big thing. SCNext offers you access to the ISCEA Venture Capital funds. We will be hosting idea meets where you could present your next big thing to a panel of senior board members and get VC funding for it if selected. Not only that, all of ISCEA global resources will be at your disposal too for growing your company.

Participate in our annual global case competitions and challenge your peers on complex supply chain issues.

Want to innovate and get paid for it. We will be hosting a innovation section as part of our social network where we invite companies to post problems and request solutions from our members. You get a timeline to work for it and present. If selected, you are on your way to a huge monetary prize.

Have fun, make new friends, and change the world

Locally Organized, Internationally connected

Unlike other groups, we do not push "chapters" when a functioning organization exists. We encourage current supply chain oriented chapters/organizations to join the SCNext to share with each other best practices, experiences, events and resources.  If you are a member of the CSCMP, APICS, ISCEA, ISM, or  any University organization around the world join the SCNext and represent your group. This is not an advertising platform for supply chain certification providers. It is a platform for developing leaders in the supply chain industry and connecting those leaders with companies around the world.

What we mean by a member run organization

The only goal of the SCNext leadership is to steer the organization in the right direction. How fast it goes there are the members responsibilities. We reward each member's contribution in a number of ways. 

On our own social network "The SCNexus", the more active a member is, the greater the reward. W e define active as being able to contribute to member learning, reply to member queries, post videos about your supply chain experiences, interviews with experts, case study examples and stir online activity. The more you share the more you gain. 

If you have something in mind, something radical which will serve our vision, we want to hear from you. Now, the best part- If it's selected, the idea/event will be your baby. We will provide all resources required for setup but the challenge will be for you to plan, organize and execute. Needless to say, added benefits of networking, prizes and conferences come along the way for such active members.

A unique point system keeps track of each members SCore and periodically rewards are sent out to the most active members.(It could be anything from a Supply Chain conference pass, opportunity of a power lunch and networking event with our corporate partners or lets have some fun- a return ticket for a wonderful holiday package)
