We are delighted to introduce our esteemed keynote speakers.
Prof. Andreas Wieland - Copenhagen Business School (CBS) - "The role of supply chain management in an era of ecological crises"
Supply chains are both driving and suffering from the ongoing ecological crises. For example, most human-made emissions can be located somewhere in a supply chain. This provides a huge responsibility and new opportunities for supply chain research and practice. This keynote discusses harmful supply chain practices and opportunities for making these practices less harmful.
François Méroc - Airbus - "Connecting the Dots: Transforming Airbus' Industrial Supply Chain for the Challenges of Tomorrow"
This presentation will show examples on how Airbus Commercial Aircraft is currently set up in order to organize its industrial supply chain. By reflecting on the achievements of the European aerospace sector during the past half-century, Francois Méroc will then draw the line to the challenges ahead and how Airbus needs to rethink and adapt its supply chain to be ready for the future. Attendees will learn about what makes the aircraft supply chain so specific and exciting. They will also get insights about the concrete advancements of connecting the physical and digital flow as well as about the fields of investigation and research to come.
