Supply Chain Crisis: Challenge, Mitigation, Opportunity

What should you expect for your critical supply chain?

This program aims to connect Pittsburgh manufacturers and technology companies with leaders in supply chain to network, learn, and exchange ideas. 

As supply chains were severely disrupted over the past year, vulnerabilities were quickly brought to light. As a result of tariffs, raw material shortages, and access to finished goods, companies were forced to redefine their supply chains. Successful companies pivoted with flexibility, agile processes, reshoring and digitization. This panel will take a deep dive into some of the most critical issues related to supply chain and what you need to know for the future.

Panelists:
- Dr. James K. Hayes, COO, Marine Electric Systems, Inc.
- Justin Hyrb, Category Manager, United States Steel Corporation
- Nick Parmar, Director of New Business Development, Innovative Electronics Corporation 
- Ricardo Iriart, Principal, Noblia Advisors
