Thriving in times of uncertainty
Supply chain disruption that started with the pandemic in 2020 and has more recently been hit by geopolitical complications shows no signs of ending. At the same time, consumer and regulatory pressure to make supply chains greener are increasing.
How can businesses prepare for this unpredictability while working toward reducing their carbon footprint?
