The disruption caused by COVID-19 underscores the need for highly traceable, transparent, and resilient supply chains. Blockchain, as well as other technology, is an incredibly valuable tool for building and sustaining this approach.

In this virtual panel discussion, we explored questions such as: How have effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on supply chains revealed the increased need for traceability? How is blockchain technology being used to ensure greater traceability and transparency? How are large companies leveraging nascent technologies like blockchain to enhance existing business models and product lines? What new business opportunities exist to leverage blockchain to address sustainability challenges?
