Carmit can share expert insight on global developments and how these have impacted and will impact our supply chain. These include (but are not limited to) the post-COVID movement away from China as a trading partner, and how the Indian government is determined to capitalize on this opportunity; geopolitical events such as the war in Ukraine and the drought in Panama and how these localized disruptions can have significant international ramifications; and the ongoing diversification, digitalization and democratization of the global shipping process, especially as these benefit smaller underrepresented businesses.
