The Supply Chain Buzz for February 20th: PPI Increases and Semiconductor Geopolitics

The Supply Chain Buzz is Supply Chain Now’s regular Monday livestream, held at 12n ET each week. This show focuses on some of the leading stories from global supply chain and global business, always with special guests – the most important of which is the live audience!

This week’s edition of The Buzz featured hosts Scott Luton and Greg White. In addition to covering top industry headlines, the team rolled out a new educational segment focused on three key things business leaders need to keep in mind when it comes to selecting new technology.

In this livestream, created in collaboration with a live Supply Chain Now audience, Scott and Greg discussed:

• What recent increases in the producer price index (PPI), 6 percent year over year in January, will mean for the prices consumers pay in the future

• Persistent geopolitical challenges being faced by companies in the semiconductor supply chain, including Apple, which is completely dependent on TSMC for their smartphone microchips

• One of the key things companies forget to think about when they are selecting a digital platform
