Foreword to the white paper "Logistics in a +2oC World" of the Kuehne Climate Center.
Supply chains are disrupted everywhere, all the time. Wildfires, cyberattacks, floods, power black outs, storms, strikes, tariffs – we can add a new event to the list every week. Add to the mix the growing geopolitical instability, and we have a perfect storm.
Supply-chain disruptions are ALWAYS! Sophie Punte, CEO of Life-Links on why supply-chain, procurement and logistics managers can no longer rely on either the just-in-time or the just-in-case strategies but should build resilience into their supply chains.
A new multipolar world order puts trade above aid. Sophie Punte, CEO of Life-Links on how the EU should leverage supply chains to combine trade with aid, boost competitiveness, and keep our SDGs and climate goals within reach.
Climate action is under attack. Sophie Punte, CEO of Life-Links on how we can create a new momentum by an added focus on resilience and adaptation of supply chains that connect us all.
