Orange live presents: How to manage supply chain disruptions? With special guest Anthony Gardner, former US Ambassador to the EU

Not so long ago globalisation was seen as so unstoppable that rejecting it “was like rejecting the sunrise.” But what a difference a few decades, an earthquake in Japan, COVID-19, a trade war, and geopolitical events can make.

While the push to protect supply chains started long before the pandemic, the playbook for how to respond and win in this new environment is yet to be written. Do you want to reimagine supply chains in a new reality? Join the 7th edition of our online event series: ‘Orange live | East, West, local best?’.

Here’s what you can expect 
We’ll be joined by special guest Anthony Gardner, former US Ambassador to the EU, negotiator on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership Agreement, and advisor to the Biden campaign. He will provide a unique perspective on how current events affect global trade flows both now and in the future.

We will explore the impacts on businesses in key industries with Sucafina CEO Nicolas A. Tamari,  Varo Energy CEO Dev Sanyal and Duferco Strategy director James May. Joined by Cilia Ruinen, ING's head of metals, mining & fertilizers EMEA. They will share how they have dealt with  disruptions in the supply chains and their vision on the way forward.

To provide a macro and commodities perspective, ING’s global head of macro research Carsten Brzeski and head of commodities strategy Warren Patterson, will debate the complexity of the supply chain influx and the impact on trade flows across sectors.
