EVENT #2: JULY 8TH, 2020: INCREASING THE COMPETITIVENESS OF REGIONAL SUPPLY CHAINS


This session highlighted that competitiveness is a multi-faceted topic and that perspectives on competitiveness in the supply chain depend on the organizational context. Private firms must constantly assess their ability to compete in a dynamic environment while governments and other stakeholder organizations must work to break down silos and create the right environment for the region to thrive.
