Preamble
Because the supply chain of yesterday cannot solve the challenges of tomorrow.
The supply chain is no longer just a cost centre – it is fast becoming the strategic engine for resilience, intelligence, sustainability and growth. Geopolitical shifts are redrawing sourcing networks, AI is moving from experimentation to execution, sustainability is moving from compliance to business value, and humans, AI and robotics are beginning to work as one. Leaders who act now will shape the next decade of advantage.
DISHA 2026, the 20th edition of IIMM Mumbai's annual signature event, brings these transformations together in one strategic conversation. As you engage with industry leaders across four themes, you will see your supply chain through a new lens:
Adaptive Globalisation:
- How to build resilient, agile networks through China+1/2, friend-shoring
- India-first sourcing, FTAs, multi-sourcing, geopolitical risk management
- Strategic inventory and digital resilience – turning volatility into opportunity
Agentic AI:
- Move confidently from AI pilots to AI-powered execution
- Intelligent sourcing, spend and supplier intelligence, forecasting, inventory
- Contract intelligence & autonomous decision support, backed by the governance, data and ROI discipline needed to scale
Responsible Value Creation:
- Decarbonisation (Scope 1/2/3), circularity
- Responsible sourcing
- Traceability and ESG go beyond compliance to deliver measurable business value
Collaborative Intelligence:
- Shaping the human + AI + robotics operating model through reskilling, process and decision excellence
- Change leadership
Imagine returning with practical frameworks, proven use cases and a peer network ready to support your next move.

Testimonials
Great insights into procurement and supply chain analytics upcoming advanced technologies in the field of SCM with practical real time examples and case studies.
Our Corporation always look forward for constructive partnership for continuous improvements and adopting Best Practices. IIMM has graduated in adopting the philosophy which has been demonstrated in the organising of such well planned structured event.
Live sharing example related to current supply chain trend.
IIMM Disha was very informative, engaging, & insightful. As a vendor supplying products and services to various industries, this virtual conference was very useful for my organization to prepare for the next normal. With the user-friendly interface, glitch-free experience, and knowledgeable seminars, DISHA 2020 was a huge success and very beneficial for all the supply chain professionals across industries.
First of all I would like thank IIMM for arranging this wonderful training program. The efforts undertaken by each and every one in your team is commendable. The whole idea of using online platform and that too with such ease / multiple options / varied topics / experts can only be executed by Team IIMM, that too without any glitch.As soon as you enter the website, the way everything was virtually arranged gave a feel as if we were literally walking in the 3D environment. Easy access to Lobby, Auditorium Exhibitor Arena and more. The idea of having Parallel Tracks took this event to a whole new level. If I remember correctly, there were more than 800 Delegates who had enrolled. A very good overall introduction to DISHA by Chairman, IIMM, Mumbai Branch regarding the importance of Digital, Cost Management, Risk Management, Indigenisation etc. set the pace for this event. I personally loved the whole idea of having Opinion polls for topics like: Are Supply Chains likely to face increased risk in the Next Normal? In your opinion, is the Supply Chain fraternity ready for Next Normal? Having interactive activities in between sessions in a wonderful idea. Hope to see more such ideas in future. In short, my experience with Virtual Disha 2020 event was like being offered a 5-Star Buffet of knowledge and experience to choose from. I would say that IIMM was successful in taking their training to a whole new level during this challenging COVID times, though I personally prefer the live version of IIMM training, where we get to personally meet everyone and exchange information directly. Proud to be an ex-student of IIMM (PGDMM).
The event was very well organized and the effort put forth by the team was laudable. It was an example portrayed that come what may, IIMM Disha continues to perform and make the event a grand success. It is not an easy task to set up a virtual event with a bank of eminent speakers on the platform. The topics covered were really interesting and informative that spoke about the present market scenario. The virtual portal access was user friendly and functioned smoothly, right from desk enquiry to visiting the booths to attending the conference to exchanging contacts with the attendees, that it didn’t seem to appear as we were attending a virtual exhibition.
