Most importantly, Jason explained how AMCHAM provided its members with some verbal assistance when it comes to finding new employment.  This is something that is not advertised publicly but can be a huge benefit for many AMCHAM members who have let go of many good employees.   Jason concluded that Norway will do well after Covid.  The people and culture are strong and many member companies have implemented plans that will elevate them to the top of their industry. You will not be disappointed in listening to Jason and his unique insider view of 23 Norwegian industries and how they managed to survive and excel during and after Covid.

Our discussion then focuses on RFID technology and the benefits specifically for the retail industry.   Anders has years of experience at GS1, explaining cutting-edge technologies to companies. RFID has been an emerging technology for many years but now with the importance of tracking items and knowing where and what condition an item is in is critical, the time for RFID is now.  Anders shares several valuable new usage models for FRID technology.  He shares stories of how a large retailer came into GS1 and thought their inventory systems were very good.  With only 10 seconds and using RFID, Anders proved to the partner the potential amount of money the partner has lost and the incredibly short payback period for when implementing RFID technology.   Please subscribe to the IBM "KIS Technology podcast” and we sincerely thank you for listening.   Read much more about IBM, our ways of working, and our Cloud offerings here - https://ibm.co/2URU66K We have also gathered some exciting insights where you pick and choose the ones that fit your needs the best.   Read how you can unleash data and AI for competitive advantage - https://ibm.co/39oc0D3  Manage IT.
