Surviving and Thriving in a Post COVID, VUCA Global Supply Chain Landscape
During the meeting Greg Schlegel will present a brief discussion covering the supply chain of the textile industry, supply chain risk and resiliency in our new VUCA world. Unlike value-added chains for several other industries, textiles and apparel include a great number of process stages, carried out by different successive industry units. Along with the material flow, the value-added chain is structured in the steps of fiber production, spinning, weaving/knitting, finishing, cutting and sewing, merchandising, wholesale/retail, consumption, and disposal/recycling. Location: MSTT 5th Floor Seminar Room & Zoom.
