Jason - Relating longevity science and supply chain:
“I think being data-driven around health. Well, longevity science is a great way to get into how we look at procurement and supply chain today, data sets the foundation.”

Jason - Procurement and supply chain brings transformation:
“This will sound biased, but I think direct procurement and supply chain and its intersections are what truly transform businesses versus indirect and services.”

Jason - Options are increasingly important:
“I think from a resiliency standpoint, we're moving into an era where having optionality in terms of how we design our supply chain becomes really important.”

Jason - Advice to direct spend peeps:
“I would say, when you think you have the answer, challenge yourself that you don't think of the three reasons you don't, and think about how you would defeat your argument for investing in tech or doing what you're doing.”
