    PANEL DISCUSSION: A MORE RESILIENT GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN

    The stranding of the Ever Given in the Suez Canal showed how a minor issue can lead to major problems in global supply chains. And yet supply chains are faced with even greater challenges, from the COVID-19 pandemic to mounting geopolitical tensions. In this more complicated era, how can companies build a future-oriented supply chain management system? Is “Just-in-Time” still appropriate? And how can we create a supply chain that can withstand a “black swan” event?
