Donald DeMont

A famous saying is that “Big things have small beginnings,” and this webinar with Donald DeMont of Antonina’s Gluten-Free Bakery will examine the interplay between tactics, strategy, and ultimately grand strategy. These misunderstood terms are not interchangeable but form a relational synthesis, which, when seen in their proper context, are like gears in the machinery of business. Participants will gain an understanding of the nature of strategy from the micro to the macro level and how the whole really is greater than the sum of its parts.

Armin Pearn

Speaker Armin Pearn introduces how Dairy Data Warehouse (DDW) is helping transform the dairy industry through smarter use of data available on farms.

By uniting fragmented data on farms into one standard date set the industry can make more informed data driven decisions, reduce environmental footprints, and help the entire dairy value chain move toward a more sustainable future.
