#57: Supply chain as competitive advantage with Salvatore Lombardo, Coupa


Listen Later

Is your supply chain a competitive advantage, or your biggest liability waiting to be exposed? Agility requires preparing for the unpredictable, especially when your brand’s ability to deliver hinges on global events that are entirely out of your control. In a world of political unrest, regulatory change, and natural disasters, the brands that win are the ones who can pivot fast — without losing their balance. Today we’re going to talk about the crucial connection between modern supply chain strategy and brand agility. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Salvatore Lombardo, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Coupa.
