When a supply chain is disrupted, it is only as strong as its weakest link. Given the recent events of Covid-19 and Brexit, it is now more evident than ever that UK supply chains must be prepared to respond to and recover quickly from these and other types of disruptions. In order to strengthen the UK’s high-value manufacturing base, the Supply Chain Research Group at WMG is launching the Supply Chain Resilience Hub powered by High Value Manufacturing Catapult, which will develop, grow, and anchor supply chain capability and resilience in the UK by leveraging fundamental and applied supply chain research knowledge. Join our event to learn more about the Supply Chain Resilience Hub activities and service offerings and our “Building Back Better” development programme.”
