Private Event

We learn about about the development of successful Covid-19 vaccines in record time — including the science behind them and the supply chains that enabled them. Our guest is Dr. Yossi Sheffi, a professor of engineering systems at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and director of the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics.

Joe Selvaggi talks with global supply chain expert, MIT Professor Yossi Sheffi about the unprecedented global supply and demand shocks created by the Covid-19 pandemic and how effective supply chain managers in an integrated world economy adapted to provide consumers with food, goods, and vaccines in record time.

The interest of Professor Sheffi's talk is to describe an overview of the new reality of supply chains due to COVID. He explains other factors such as labor in China, high freight costs, container shortages, commodity volatility, etc. Expect to hear answers to questions such as:

What should companies expect from Supply Chains in the future?

How should companies prepare?

How can they face this new reality (which should change in their processes) in order to continue to be valid and preserve companies?

What’s the current state of global trade and how has this affected trade finance? Has supply chain disruption, be that shortages and delays to the transport of goods, or near shoring and reshoring disrupted supply chain finance programmes? What are the biggest lessons to be learnt from the pandemic?

Supply Chain and Logistics expert, Professor Yossi Sheffi, joins the team at the Peel.News podcast for a discussion on the history of supply chain, current state of supply chains, and what to expect going forward. 

Marco Prüglmeier invite Professor Yossi Sheffi to talk to The Logistics Tribe, a weekly podcast about the world of global logistics and supply chain management.

Recently, the world has witnessed unprecedented disruptions originating from diverse areas such as technology, geo-politics and health, and these have rippling effects because of the deep, interdependent linkages in the world today. We have seen first-hand how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the economy, exposed vulnerabilities in supply chains, military operations, and accelerated the pace of digitalization worldwide. Professor Yossi Sheffi weighs in on how to best face disruptions in supply chain and logistics in a post-pandemic world.
