An exclusive forum for leaders on managing supply chains

The world of logistics has undoubtedly been subject to its fair share of turbulence over the past few years. Having finally emerged from the major challenges at the start of the decade, global supply chains were hit with a number of incidents in 2023 and 2024 that once again left the industry needing to get back on its feet. And in such a dynamic, ever-changing world, you need more than a crystal ball to understand where the next black swan event is coming from.

That’s why supply chain resilience has become imperative for businesses worldwide, but achieving true resilience certainly isn’t without its complexities – and finding the missing pieces of the puzzle is now more important than ever.
