The Supply Chain Buzz for October 18th Featuring Kevin L. Jackson and Ray Wang

The Supply Chain Buzz is Supply Chain Now’s regular Monday livestream, held at 12n ET each week. This show focuses on some of the leading stories from global supply chain and global business, always with special guests – the most important of which is the live audience!

In this episode of The Buzz, Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Greg White are joined by Kevin L. Jackson, host of Digital Transformers, and Ray Wang, Principal Analyst and Founder at Constellation Research and author of the best-selling book, ‘Everybody Wants to Rule the World: Surviving and Thriving in a World of Digital Giants.’ His book examines the differences between companies to see which are thriving and which are being crushed in today’s competitive business landscape.

Ray, Kevin, and Scott take this opportunity to discuss recent news stories that have a decidedly digital element to them:

• The recently announced partnership between Berkshire Grey and Atos, which will apply robotics-driven supply chain transformation to retail, transportation, and logistics companies

• New research from Accenture focused on how the supply chains of today need to adapt and evolve to power the business models of tomorrow

• What is likely to fuel digital transformation projects in 2022 and beyond, including data and online business models
