The Accely Singapore team will be at LogiSYM Platinum Vietnam 2026 on November 18 at Lotte Hotel Saigon in Ho Chi Minh City. Michael Lim, Director of Growth & Strategy at Accely Pte Ltd, joins the expert panel “Where Robotics and AI Pay Off: Quality, Throughput and Safety.”
Event Overview
Vietnam sits right in the middle of Southeast Asia’s manufacturing shift. Supply chains are diversifying, trade policy keeps moving, and decarbonization mandates are getting harder to ignore.
LogiSYM Platinum Vietnam 2026 brings senior supply chain executives, logistics service providers, policy advisors and technology leaders to Ho Chi Minh City for one practical day on what that means on the ground. This year’s theme is Converging Forces: Human, Digital and Circular Supply Chains. The idea behind it: technology, talent and sustainability can’t be run as separate targets anymore.
The program covers trade compliance and rules of origin, ESG and governance, cargo security, contract resilience on volatile trade lanes and, in the session Accely joins, where automation actually earns its keep.
Accely on the Panel
Where do robotics and AI pay off? The honest answer: in fewer places than the pitch decks suggest, and rarely the places you budgeted for.
That’s the starting point for this panel. Instead of the vendor version of AI, the discussion looks at measurable operational outcomes on three fronts: better quality, higher throughput and safer workplaces.
Panelists:
- Michael Lim, Director of Growth & Strategy, Accely Pte Ltd
- Linh Pham, CEO, FreightPilot.ai
- Stephanie Krishnan, Associate Vice President, IDC Insights, IDC
- Pham Phuong Thanh, Supply Chain Analyst, Regional Logistics Asia Pacific (Vietnam)
What the Panel Will Cover
- Where intelligent automation creates value you can measure, and where it doesn’t.
- How to spot the right opportunities before committing budget.
- How to turn emerging technology into improvements that show up in quality, throughput and safety numbers.
Why Attend?
- A full day built for senior supply chain and logistics leaders working in and around Vietnam.
- Panels on the questions that matter now: shifting demand, ethics, trade compliance, robotics and AI, and network resilience.
- Speakers from operators, advisors and analysts, including Avnet, DENSO, Morrison Express, KLN, IDC and Baker & McKenzie.
- A regional peer network you can actually work with after the event.
Key Takeaways
- A clearer view of which automation investments pay back in logistics, and which ones stall.
- How changing demand across Asia is reshaping production and investment in Vietnam.
- Practical approaches to trade compliance, rules of origin and contract resilience.
- How AI-first operations still depend on the people running them.
