Resilient Supply Chain
The Resilient Supply Chain Podcast is where global leaders tackle the future of supply chains, and how to make them stronger, smarter, and more sustainable.
Hosted by Tom Raftery, technology evangelist, sustainability thought-leader, and former SAP Global VP, the show features C-suite executives, founders, and innovators from across the world’s most influential companies. Together, we explore how organisations are building supply chains that can withstand shocks, adapt to change, and lead in a decarbonising economy.
Every Monday at 7 a.m. CET, new episodes drop - packed with real insights, not PR fluff.
From supply chain resilience and risk mitigation to AI-driven visibility, circular design, and ESG transformation, we unpack the data, systems, and strategies shaping global operations.
You’ll hear from the people actually doing the work - the ones leading on:Because a supply chain can’t be sustainable unless it’s resilient, and it can’t be resilient unless it’s sustainable.

- Scope 3 emissions and supply chain sustainability
