In this episode of Rethinking Supply Chain, Venzee CEO, John Abrams, and Diana Chen host Johan Boström, Co-founder & Chief Product Officer at inRiver PIM. The conversation kicks off with a discussion of supply chain resilience in the face of external stressors. COVID-19 has highlighted the weaknesses in the supply chain, providing an opportunity to improve.
Johan began his journey in digital product information working with Nordic giants Nokia and Erikkson by creating a PIM (product information management) company before the acronym was even industry standard. Although PIMs are gaining traction as manufacturers become aware of the savings associated with data communication, John is still surprised at the small market share that companies like his are taking on.
So why haven’t supply chain networks adopted more technology? Pain points remain, and investment is increasing. The pandemic has highlighted what industry veterans have always known. John and Johan get into the details of how tech-based network solutions can improve supply chain efficiency and drive revenue faster for suppliers.
