The corona crisis has significantly mixed up supply chain structures. In the past years, corporations clearly moved towards globalizing their supply chains, but have suddenly had to rethink this trend in the past months, quickly adjusting and moving towards localizing as well as digitizing structures to ensure continuous and smooth supply chain operations in the midst of the pandemic.
Holger Mandel, Board Member for Procurement at MAN Truck & Bus SE and Michael Ardelt, COO of logistics startup Forto, will talk about how supply chain structures will evolve in the future, how digitization and innovation can help building resilience to shocks such as the Corona crisis, and - on a more personal level - what leadership means to them especially in times of crisis.
Livestream: Just follow this link a few minutes early on July 7, 4 pm, and you'll get to the livestream right away.
Speaker:
Michael Ardelt, COO of Forto
Holger Mandel, Board Member for Procurement of MAN Truck & Bus SE
