Managing geopolitical risk in supply chains - a chat with Perch Perspectives Jacob Shapiro

Send me a message

Between Brexit, trade wars, pandemics etc. supply chains are being disrupted more than ever. Managing these risks is a matter of growing importance to maintain a reliable and resilient supply chain, so my guest on today's podcast is Jacob Shapiro. Jacob is the founder and chief strategist at Perch Perspectives, a company that provides geopolitical and risk analysis to organisations.

Jacob wrote a fascinating blog post recently linking Industry 4.0 to what he's calling Geopolitics 4.0, and this was one of the topics we addressed in our chat. Jacob also participates in The Perch Pod, his company's fortnightly podcast, so I knew he'd make for an excellent guest, and he didn't disappoint.
