Learn what industry experts believe the most pressing supply chain challenges will be in 2023.
The global supply chain has arguably experienced more challenges in the past five years than it has in the past fifty. Geopolitical conflict, materials sourcing issues, and rising inflation have made supply chain planning and decision-making an even more complex and uncertain task for global enterprises.
At the same time, clients, employees, and governments have been putting more pressure on companies to deliver against their sustainability targets and operationalize their ESG initiatives, with a recent EY study reporting that in 2022, 82% of CEOs see ESG as a critical value driver—a significant increase compared to 2019 (42%).
As 2022 closes, many business leaders are asking themselves what the top supply chain challenges will be in 2023 and how they can leverage data, analytics, and software to proactively address them.
In this episode of Masters of Digital Transformation, Maria P. Villablanca, Co-Founder and CEO of Future Insights Network, and Tanguy Caillet, SVP of Global Industry Solutions at o9 Solutions, join host Caleb Masters to discuss their top supply chain challenges to watch in 2023, including:
- The increasingly-urgent topic of sustainability and the role technology will play in enabling companies to operationalize their ESG initiatives.
- Geopolitical conflict and how Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will continue to shape and influence the supply chain and energy industries like oil and gas.
- Why digital transformation and technology are the critical levers required to help leaders across industries adapt to this new ‘Black Swan’ environment where crises are the norm.
