Welcome Students and Faculty! Register here for the 7th Annual WISE Future Leaders Symposium. WISE stands for Women Impacting Supply Chain Excellence. It’s an exciting initiative that started at the University of Arkansas but has evolved into a much broader program that now includes WISE chapters and events at an ever increasing number of universities. The WISE Future Leaders Symposium is an annual event to create a nationwide network of enthusiastic undergraduate supply chain students (as well as faculty and SCM professionals). As a participant, you’ll have a chance to meet other students as well as talented and inspiring industry leaders. Lots of opportunities for you to grow: as a student, as a leader, and as a future supply chain professional!
In its 7th year, we are excited to welcome students and faculty from over 30 universities to the University of Arkansas in beautiful Northwest Arkansas on September 18-19, 2025. This year’s theme is: WISE from all Sides. Plan to spend time building your network, developing personally and professionally, honing leadership skills, and learning more about the abundance of opportunities for careers in supply chain management. We’ll dig into all the different sides of you as a future supply chain professional.
Support from individuals and our industry partners enable this to be a world class event. It will be a life changing experience for you! Complete event information will be emailed to those registered a few weeks before the event.
This event is made possible due to the generosity of many individuals and industry partners. Stay tuned to see the world class lineup of speakers and organizations that will be part of the WISE FLS experience.
