Jeremy Zenlea is back this week to talk about the role of technology in managing today’s complex global supply chain.

Consumer-facing technologies like restaurant ordering kiosks can give consumers choice and control and deliver up-to-date nutritional information.

Even more important is what technology can do behind the scenes: remote temperature monitoring and other automated systems that can be deployed to quietly keep consumers safe. AI chatbots food industry employees can use to report symptoms that provide real-time guidance to prevent the further spread of disease. These are but a few use cases for advanced technology in food safety, and things are only getting started.

The supply chain will only get more complicated in the future, but according to Zenlea, technology is here to help.
