Coming soon: ASCI Connect- A focused digital workspace for Supply Chain Professionals

ASCI will soon launch a refreshed version of ASCI Connect, our digital professional community serving the supply chain profession across its entire operational and strategic landscape.
This refresh is not about introducing another general discussion forum. It is about creating a dedicated professional workspace where practitioners are invited to engage with peers on real-world challenges, emerging priorities, and insights from practice.

The updated ASCI Connect experience includes:
·        A clearer, more centralised activity feed across the community
·        Easier access to discussion threads aligned to your professional interests
·        Integrated professional opportunities, tools, and reference resources
·        A more intentional structure designed to support meaningful, outcome-focused exchange
ASCI Connect will be open to supply chain professionals worldwide, with enhanced features and exclusive resources for ASCI members.

Further details and access information will be shared shortly via the ASCI Connect community.

As digital platforms become more prevalent in our daily lives, it’s essential to consider the impact of UI/UX design on user behavior. 

A recent study by the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) sheds light on the dark side of UI/UX, revealing how it can influence users to make impulsive and potentially harmful decisions. 

The study highlights the importance of ethical design practices and the need for greater transparency in the digital industry. As users, we must remain aware of the design elements that are influencing our behavior and make informed decisions. 

The key takeaways from this study can help us navigate the digital landscape with greater mindfulness and responsibility.
