About this program

International supply chains are increasingly exposed to risks such as geopolitical conflicts, trade barriers, natural calamities, and market instability.

Utilizing case studies, interactive simulations, and hands-on workshops, attendees will gain skills to strike a balance between cost efficiency and supply chain resilience, guaranteeing that procurement achieves both value and security.
