Join us for a discussion on the current Supply Chain disruptions & how to prepare now for the next major crisis.

Our experts will discuss what needs to change in global supply chain planning to prepare effectively for the next global crisis; whatever it maybe – financial, health or climate related. We will take a deep-dive into the dynamics of supply in the pandemic aftermath and offer a look ahead as well as steps companies can take to update their infrastructure to future-proof their systems & operations.

The State of Play:
• Overview of global trade developments and global trade volumes as compared to pre-pandemic levels with shipping and supply chains still being significantly disrupted (and no change in sight in the medium term).

Logistic Aspects:

• Outlook for shipping: Are pressures easing? What about freight rates? Effects on inventory restocking in the US?
• The need for advance planning & agility in supply chain management
•How market participants can develop the economic dynamics on the ground

The Trade Angle:

• Trade forecasts & long-term trade forecasts for key countries.

• Possible effect trade deals may have on restructuring existing supply chain

Opportunities & Innovation:

A look ahead:
