The economics of resilient supply chains

16 Feb 2026
Main Stage
Main Stage

As companies redesign supply chains for resilience and sustainability, the economy is under pressure. Beyond national strategies and infrastructure visions, manufacturers and logistics providers must decide whether new hubs, automation, and green logistics models actually improve margins - or simply redistribute cost and risk.

This session focuses on the commercial trade-offs behind resilience: what scales, what doesn’t, and where state support ends and market reality begins.
