This episode looks at how supply chains have grown more complex across the globe and where digital tools fit in. The discussion begins with how a market researcher entered the field, then moves to a working definition of a digitised supply chain and how such networks are likely to develop.
Further topics include whether going digital gives an organisation a competitive edge, which developments in international trade look most interesting, and which everyday difficulties companies face that technology can ease. Particular attention goes to poor visibility across supply networks, and the closing section considers the growing role of shared business networks that link trading partners.
