Why BLFIRE19 matters

Honoring the people who keep care supplied

Bellwether League Foundation is an independent nonprofit dedicated to educating, endowing and recognizing professionals in healthcare supply chain performance excellence. Its Healthcare Supply Chain Leadership Hall of Fame, founded in 2007, honors the innovators, leaders, pioneers and visionaries who have shaped the profession. BLFIRE19 brings industry leaders, past inductees and supply chain students together for an afternoon and evening of recognition, with the Bellwether Leadership Symposium opening the program.

Genesis is attending to celebrate the leaders who have shaped healthcare supply chain and to support the next generation entering it. The work honored in Savannah is the same work our customers do every day: getting the right product to the right patient, protecting margins, and proving value to clinicians and finance. We're looking forward to:

  • Congratulating the Bellwether Class of 2026, the Ammer Honoree Class and the Future Famers on recognition they have earned.
  • Hearing the Collegiate Capstone project and the William J. McFaul Memorial Keynote on keeping the human touch in an increasingly automated world, a question that shapes how we build automation that keeps people in charge of decisions.
  • Conversations with supply chain leaders, honorees and students about where the profession is headed next.
