Supply Chain Resilience and Agility

Discuss strategies with fellow UWEBC members to make supply chains more flexible and respond faster in the face of disruption.

February 04, 2025 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Description

When SAP's Chief Commercial Officer, Darcy MacClaren, shared her 2025 Supply Chain Predictions, she declared that "Anti-fragile supply chains will become the new normal."

We will hear from Merlin Dow at UWEBC Member Company, Gebrüder Weiss, who will share insights on the topic. Join Merlin and fellow UWEBC members to discuss strategies to make supply chains more flexible - and therefore more resilient - in the face of disruption.

We will also feature a Member Spotlight Panel with supply chain leaders Tamara Fox Director of S&OP at Sartori, and Lori Anderson, Director of Strategic Sourcing at Ideal Industries. Attendees will leave with actionable insights and frameworks to evaluate and strengthen their own supply chain strategies.

Whether grappling with current disruptions or planning for future uncertainties, this session offers a practical guide to transforming supply chains into a competitive advantage in an increasingly volatile world.
