In General

The Covid-19 pandemic and other recent events have led to supply chain distress across countries and industrial ecosystems, putting economic players – especially SMEs – in very difficult situations.

  1. proposing a methodology to detect and analyse supply chains disruptions

  3. exploring possible avenues for further research
