Background

About Adam Elson

With over 20 years of experience in sourcing and procurement across APAC, I am a strategic supply chain specialist who can manage and optimise complex and dynamic processes and relationships in the region. I am also an Executive Director and an Advisory Board Member at Good for Life, a global sourcing and procurement company that I have been involved with for over ten years. In my previous roles as the Global Procurement Director and the Sourcing Director, I led the procurement and logistics functions for the company, delivering cost savings, quality improvements, and operational efficiencies. Additionally, I have provided strategic advice and guidance to Indicia Worldwide, a leading marketing production and procurement agency, as a Global Supply Advisor. One of my core competencies and passions is sourcing across APAC, which I have developed through living and working in Taiwan, Beijing, and Hong Kong for 12 years. I have a deep understanding and respect for the culture and way of doing business with people from different backgrounds, and I have built a large network of friends and business colleagues in various industries. I am fluent in Mandarin Chinese and have completed several courses and certifications in the language. I enjoy connecting with and learning from people who share my interest and vision for creating value and making a positive impact in the world.
