Sustainable Supply Chain Marcell Vollmer on Innovating Supply Chain Management for a Sustainable Future
Hello everyone, welcome to another exciting episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast. In this episode, we dive deep into the future of supply chains with the brilliant Marcell Vollmer, CEO of Prospitalia Group.
We explore a host of topics, from the role of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in enhancing supply chain processes, to how autonomous vehicles and drones might be key players in the logistics and supply chain space. We discuss about real-life applications of these technologies and how they've been tested around the world in places like California, Pittsburgh, and Phoenix.
We touch on sustainability issues as well, especially how the electrification of transportation impacts our climate and our supply chains. Get ready to learn how the trend of electrifying transport, including drones and electric trucks, is a promising step towards cleaner air, less noise pollution, and reduced climate emissions.
Marcell shares insightful perspectives on globalization and the necessity to distribute manufacturing while maintaining strong international connections. We delve into the inevitable reality of a world post-oil, and how renewable energies like solar and wind power may shape our supply chains.
You won't want to miss our exchange on potential future technologies that could impact supply chains, like blockchain, and the path to a more sustainable, efficient, and interconnected world of commerce.
We wrapped up our conversation with Marcell's views on how we need to prepare the world for significant change and how supply chains will be central to this transformation.
