Meet The Speakers

Chinmay has spent over a decade building and implementing innovative supply chain planning solutions across E2open, o9 Solutions, Logility, and Philips for manufacturers and distributors.

His hands-on experience covers demand forecasting, inventory optimization, production scheduling, S&OP, and constraint-based supply planning.

He founded Horizon to solve what he saw firsthand: planning tools that were too complex, too siloed, or too slow for the teams actually using them.

Since its first year, Horizon has managed over $3.5 billion in inventory, helping manufacturing organizations improve forecast accuracy, reduce stockouts, and free up working capital.

Chinmay Narwane
