A slowing macro economy is a headwind for investment, affecting everything from capacity planning to ‎capital expenditures and inventory levels.

What does it ‎all mean to the distribution community? In this episode Alex Chausovsky will delve deep into these ‎critical topics. He will discuss the current Capex and inventory landscape, explore what is likely to occur ‎down the road,‎ and provide some sage advice to distributors looking for new insights and ideas to help deal with ‎the uncertainty head on.‎
