Webinar | Supply Chain Resilience in Light of New Geopolitical Realities

Tue. February 28, 2023 09:00 am - 10:00 am !Online

The discussion of supply chain resilience has moved from conjecture to hard reality. At the same time, geopolitical competition, pandemic repercussions and shape-shifting impacts from the War in Ukraine are driving a realignment of geopolitical relationships and new trade and supply chain footprints.

Transatlantic relations and trade are a key feature of these resilience objectives. Yet they are also host to a number of geopolitical factors as countries, economic blocs and companies seek the resilience needed in a more volatile world.

Join us for real-time insights on these trends and an outlook how the next 12 months may unfold. Our panel will unpack the challenges of staying resilient against the backdrop of geopolitics, Climate change and ESG requirements.

We will analyze why resilience is still such a burning issue, how governments are addressing the subject and how corporates are responding.
