Global Supply Chain Outlook
Global Supply Chain Outlook
WIll de-globalisation lead to the end of global supply chains? In this webinar with INSEAD Professor Enver Yucesan, we will discuss how the geo-political forces that drive deglobalization may affect the design of global supply chains and thus the shape of the Global Factory.
Topics include:
- Supply chain complexities
- Emerging technologies
- Macro forces such as trade barriers on the reconfiguration of supply chains involving choices among offshoring, nearshoring, and reshoring.
- Synthesising a multi-level hierarchical framework of supply chain design
- Nearshoring vs reshoring
- Political pressure for reducing offshoring works
- Importance of manufacturing and ecosystem complexity in mediating the rate of reversal of offshoring decisions

Building Resilience in Global Supply Chains in the face of geopolitical developments
As wished for by the ancient Chinese proverb, we do live in interesting times driven by geo-political forces.
This volatile setting, in turn, creates significant challenges for global supply chains that drive value creation.
Join us on the 11th of December to hear from Professor Enver Yucesan, Professor of Operations Management and Programme Director of the Transition to General Management programme, on how organisational leaders must understand the impact of macro-economic drivers on their businesses and take strategic decisions to enhance the resilience of their global networks.

Beyond 1.5 °C: The Future of the Climate Transition | Webinar
For years, the 1.5 °C goal of the Paris Agreement has been the anchor of climate ambition, shaping global policy, corporate strategy, and investor expectations. Yet with emissions still rising and the carbon budget shrinking fast, many scientists now warn that staying within 1.5 °C may soon be out of reach.
What does this mean for finance and business leaders? Should strategies built for a 1.5 °C world be abandoned, adapted, or completely reimagined?
Join Lucie Tepla, Senior Affiliate Professor of Finance at INSEAD, for a thought-leadership webinar that explores how the 1.5 °C goal became central to climate action and what its shifting reality means for investors, companies, and regulators.
This session will cover:
- How disclosure frameworks and climate scenarios evolved around the 1.5 °C benchmark
- What new transition pathways could look like in a hotter, riskier future
- How leaders can respond with credible, forward-looking sustainability strategies
This webinar also offers a preview of the INSEAD Business Sustainability Programme, which will be held in Singapore for the first time from 30 March to 3 April 2026.
Experience how INSEAD equips leaders to drive systemic change and turn sustainability into long-term advantage.
